Lebak Bulus TOD Area Masterplan

Group work

Graduate Studio 2

Completed: January 2023

Project background:

Upon observation, Lebak Bulus has not been maximized in its role as a TOD area due to the lack of integration between MRT station and surrounding area within a 350m radius, making this MRT station seem to stand alone without supporting activities around it. Furthermore, pedestrian and cycling infrastructure around the MRT station also does not meet minimum standards. So this arrangement aims to make Lebak Bulus to be walkable and connected to surrounding neighborhoods

Intervention done includes rearrangements of land zoning and intensity, planning for activities around MRT station, and improving pedestrian ways and cycling paths

The method used in working on this project are literature studies on theories related to street, studies of similar typological precedents, then formulating design concepts and making a master plan. I actively contributed in every step and group discussions, as well as conducting site surveys, producing plans, illustations, and diagrams, and making final project report.

Bulus

Designed area: 40 Ha

Tools:

Environmental infrastructure does not yet support the Lebak Bulus MRT Station as an end station

No connectivity between some of the surrounding settlements and the Lebak Bulus MRT station

End Station As Destination

As an end station with a compact, safe and comfortable intermodal transportation link compact and connected

Provide good connectivity between spaces and activities within the area.

Making TOD areas that have the carrying capacity for sustainable development.

Making areas with character that bring benefit to the community.

Identity

Intermodal transportation in the Lebak Bulus MRT Station area is not yet compact.

Masterplan

Activity

Making an ideal TOD area that meets people's needs to live, do activities, collaborate, and enjoy life.

Mix of commercial, mixed, and residential building uses around MRT station to support integration of activities within 350m radius within station

T-HUB

Block with the concept of T-Hub or Transportation Hub. Apart from being the southern end station for all MRT trips, it is also a link for functional activities on the north and south sides of the area. Improvements to integrated pedestrian and transit facilities are the main points in the T-Hub plan.

Improvements of areas under Lebak Bulus MRT Station to create a walkable and easy to traverse area. Users’ needs for transit are all facilitated by the provision of waiting shelters, crossing facilities, and other urban furniture.
