Unlocking opportunities for urban railway, transit-oriented development, and land value capture in Kedungsepur Metropolitan Area

This project has supported the advancement of inclusive and sustainable urban transport through the development of a Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) and Land Value Capture (LVC) policy framework, tailored specifically for second-tier cities. A key outcome includes the introduction of the Integrated Transit and Development (ITD) Technical Toolkit in the Joglosemar region, aimed at guiding local governments in planning and implementing integrated urban mobility and development strategies. 

To foster alignment and build capacity among stakeholders, workshops were conducted in Kedungsepur, facilitating dialogue between national agencies, local governments, and other key actors involved in TOD and LVC implementation. These collaborative sessions enabled the co-creation of a Policy Framework, Strategic Guidelines, and Implementation Roadmap for the region, ensuring a cohesive and context-sensitive approach to integrated transport and land use planning.

One of the project’s notable recommendations involves enhancing the public transportation network in the Kedungsepur Metropolitan Area (KMA) by integrating railway infrastructure and services with the existing bus system. This proposal, grounded in the ITD model, is expected to gain support from the Ministry of Transportation, local governments, and PT. KAI, further strengthening the case for TOD-led urban transformation in Indonesia’s growing metropolitan regions.
