Indonesia’s transportation infrastructure still pounded with plenty problems that would obstruct national economy expansions and general welfare. Bandung as a city with economic growth above average is a destination for trade and service sector. Thus, insfrastructure transportation’s quality in Bandung need to be focus to advance, that is bus terminal as one of the key element. Leuwipanjang terminal as an A level terminal, currently supplies intercity and intracity bus movement. The main cause of high density of vehicle and passanger movement is a limited land owned by terminal, mainly in busy period. As a consequence, service for transportation and pedestrian become victim. Hence, terminal will be designed to respond prior to cases. In addition, parking lots will be determined to knowing need for private parking. Then, evaluation for vehicle and walker circulation will be conluded. For completing the analysis, main and supporting facilities in terminal will be observed. Capacity will be designed to rearrange the headway in departure, plotting for bus lane and adequacy of bus parking lot. Parking will be evaluted to gain characteristic, especially space requirement. Circulation will be evaluated too by identify flow, travel time and cases. Whilst, facility will be checked by interview the terminal officer that verified with observation. Obtained, headway per lane with the scale of 10 minutes until 60 minutes. For parking analysis, with accummulation of 234 vehicles, acquired 2925 m2/day space requirement. Also, attained turnover parking 0,52 vehicle/stall/hour and average duration of 0,51 hour/vehicle. In circulation, obtained layover time amount of 85 minutes for headway 15 minutes and 159 minutes for headway 50 minutes. In facility evaluation, only few facilities fullfil the indicator based on regulation.
