Abstract

This study analyzes the effect of road infrastructure costs and the number of tourist visits on the Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) of the tourism sector in Simalungun Regency. Using a quantitative approach with associative methods, secondary data from the Central Bureau of Statistics of Simalungun Regency and the Directorate General of Fiscal Balance were collected spanning 30 years from 1992 to 2021. Multiple linear regression analysis with Eviews 10 software was employed. Results indicate that both road infrastructure costs and tourist visits have a significant positive effect on the GRDP of the tourism sector in Simalungun Regency, both individually and simultaneously.
