Abstract

The objective of the paper is to formulate the corridors design guidelines that focus on the local communityâ€™s needs. The exploration of the ideas is based on our commercial street-corridors studies in 2016-2018 in Medan, Indonesia. The methodology used a qualitative approach, which was started by summarizing the main findings of previous studies. In this stage, the study highlighted the peopleâ€™s characteristics and requirements, the physical quality of the corridors, and the relevant regulation to be considered. Â Next, the preliminary ideas were formulated to guide the aspects of access and linkage, functions and activities, physical qualities and facilities, management, and the implementation strategy.

Keywords: design guideline; urban street corridor; public space; community-responsive design
