Transit oriented development (TOD) is a community development in area with mixed-use orientation that aims to encourage residents to live within walking distance of transit nodes; reduce dependence on the use of private vehicles; create an integration of urban space that unites people, activities, buildings, and public spaces in one compact area; and create good connectivity inside and outside the area. Although it has been implemented in many cities, transit oriented development still needs to be carried out by considering the normative principles and local characteristics of the planned area. Martadinata area is one of the potential locations proposed to be developed with the TOD concept in City of Bandung, but there has been no specific plan created to realize the proposal. Based on this, the formulation of Martadinata transit oriented development area’s design concepts was carried out as an effort to formulate its specific plan. The design process was carried out using fragmental method and optimizing techniques. Data collection is carried out through field observations, literature reviews, and additional observations using application assistance. The analysis methods used are qualitative descriptive analysis and site analysis. The design concepts of Martadinata transit oriented development area are to provide land use in the form of housing, commercial, office, and public open space in vertical building blocks to create a dense mixed-use area; provide transportation nodes that integrate light rail transit, city buses/bus rapid transit, and angkutan kota, connected with other land uses in the area through pedestrian and cyclist paths, and assign it as the center point of the area; provide a pedestrian and cyclist circulation network equipped with adequate supporting facilities; and provide green and non-green public open spaces that are active, attractive, and operate all day long.
