Abstract Law no. 22/2009 concerning Road Transport Traffic states that people with disabilities have the right to support facilities for managing road traffic and transport. Providing access for people with disabilities on the Denpasar City Sarbagita Bus is not implemented in accordance with Law no. 22/2009 concerning Road Transport Traffic Gaps in regulations and implementation (das sollen and das sein). The problems raised in this research are a) What are the factors that cause the Road Transport Traffic Law and the Law on Persons with Disabilities to not be realized regarding providing accessibility for people with disabilities who use public buses in Denpasar? b) What are the government's efforts to achieve justice for disabled public bus passengers in Denpasar? This research uses empirical legal research with the rationale that this research will examine the government's efforts to achieve justice for disabled public bus passengers in Denpasar. The approach used in solving problems is through a statutory approach, a fact approach and also assisted by a legal concept analysis approach (Analytical and Conceptual Approach). The results of the research show that the factors causing the non-realization of Law Number 22 of 2009 concerning Road Traffic and Transportation and Law Number 8 of 2016 concerning Persons with Disabilities regarding providing accessibility for disabled people using public buses in Denpasar include: from in terms of costs, it must be adjusted to the budget/fees provided/budgeted by TAPD (the Regional Government Budget Team cannot just ask for funds, so that the facilities are adjusted to existing funds; there is rejection of additional facilities by the project owner (Ministry of Transportation); as well as minimal involvement of people with disabilities disabilities in formulating policies so as to avoid discrimination for people with disabilities. Government efforts to achieve justice for disabled public bus passengers in Denpasar include: the creation of Bali Provincial Regulation Number 9 of 2015 concerning the protection and fulfillment of the rights of people with disabilities; further efforts to collaborate and involve certain parties in formulating accessibility policies in public bus services in Bali; Advocacy for persons with disabilities in fulfilling their rights in public services; invite people with disabilities to participate actively; and invite the general public to be aware that people with disabilities must pay attention to their existence so that it does not cause the disabled community to become jealous of non-disabled people.
