Analysis of Space Configuration on Passenger Accessibility in the Gambir Station Design Plan

The train is one of the leading transportation modes favored by the Indonesian people. Frequently, overcrowding occurs, disrupting passenger circulation and resulting in suboptimal use of facilities. The distance between the parking area and the platform and the ineffective station layout often lead to difficulties during scheduled intercity train arrivals and departures. The situation of overloaded stations with suboptimal passenger circulation creates a crowded and chaotic atmosphere. When the schedules of intercity train arrivals and departures are close, passengers find it challenging to access the station, from the parking area to the platform. The ineffective station layout in its respective functions affects the visibility and accessibility of passengers, leading to cross circulation. This research aims to verify and understand how visibility and accessibility in the planned spatial layout at Gambir Station can accommodate passenger circulation issues through a new spatial configuration that facilitates passenger access. It requires a layout plan that allows passengers to access different spaces, considering spatial configurations that facilitate passenger movement within the station. To achieve this goal, evaluations are conducted for both the old and new layouts by analyzing visibility and accessibility. The research uses a mixed methods approach, starting with observation and data processing through the depthmapX application, which will be analyzed. The research results show that by considering the visibility and accessibility of passenger activities through the description of depthmapX results, we can determine better and more organized passenger movement directions when engaging in activities at the station.
