A child-friendly city is a city concept that emphasizes the importance of children's rights and protection of children through various aspects, one of which is education. Access to education is one of the main things in creating a child-friendly city. In its application in Indonesia, as an effort to realize a child-friendly city, a policy was made that regulates schools in Indonesia through a child-friendly school policy. However, there is something that goes unnoticed in the creation of a child-friendly city. One of them is creating an area around elementary schools that is also child-friendly. The city as a whole should be child-friendly, but the area around the elementary school needs special attention, as the area around the elementary school is an area where many children, especially elementary school children, are known to be active. Children at elementary school age are considered a vulnerable group when on the road. Children are considered to have minimal knowledge of road hazards in line with the younger age of the child. Therefore, there is a need for design guidelines for the area around elementary schools, especially in the city of Bandung as one of the cities in Indonesia that has a high level of mobility like other big cities to support the development of the concept of child-friendly cities through a case study of SDN 021 Ciporeat, SDN 001 Merdeka, and SDN 200 Leuwipanjang as research objects that represent the typology of schools located on arterial roads, collector roads, and local roads considering that each road function has its own characteristics such as volume, speed, and size of the road. In formulating the guidelines, a literature review was conducted to form normative criteria and principles and then a field survey was conducted by conducting observations, questionnaires, and interviews. The results of these observations were then juxtaposed as facts with these principles and criteria, which if there is a gap between the facts and the normative principles formulated, is identified as a problem. Then the questionnaires and interviews were conducted to find out the perceptions and preferences of users who then identified the priority order of criteria, components, and what problems were contained in viithese components. After identifying problems based on observations and user perceptions and preferences, it is formulated what aspects and components need to be regulated in the formulation of guidelines for the area around elementary schools. After knowing what aspects and components need to be regulated in formulating design guidelines for the area around elementary schools. Formulated principles for design guidelines for the area around elementary schools. After the principles are made, guidelines for designing the area around elementary schools are formulated for each school, namely SDN 021 Ciporeat, SDN 001 Merdeka, and SDN 200 Leuwipanjang. Guidelines for each school are made specifically according to the characteristics of each school and still prioritize the principles previously compiled. Based on the research conducted, it was found that each school has its own characteristics considering that the school is located on a different road typology based on its function. There is a significant difference in the guidelines for pedestrian space and space for motorized vehicles considering that there are differences in the area and character of vehicles passing through each road with different typologies. This study can be more perfect with further studies related to solving problems that cannot be intervened through design so that further studies can be carried out to solve problems that are not resolved through the design of the area.
