The growth of people’s needs for transportation facilities in Indonesia has urged the government to build a particular space that could accommodate, facilitate, and contain people’s fast and massive movements. Urban planning needs to be oriented to transit activities to accommodate people’s moving behavior. Surakarta’s Adi Sumarmo International Airport has been one of the government’s plans for developing infrastructural facilities to connect essential areas in Central Java. As an international airport, Adi Sumarmo International Airport is expected to facilitate people’s movement to the city of Surakarta and other cities nearby. This article discusses the design of an airport-train station, employing a transit-oriented development approach. The design implements the concept of walkability, mixed use neighborhood, and an inclusive environment.
