Abstract


The provision of green infrastructure on a neighborhood scale for flood mitigation and the provision of green open space in the area are important issues in the development of large-scale housing areas. This paper discusses the green infrastructure network on a neighborhood scale in the housing area in Summarecon Bandung which is located in the flood-prone area of Gedebage, East Bandung. Using a descriptive method, this article explains the green infrastructure network map, including the role and function of the drainage network, several retention ponds, and parks equipped with biopore holes, in overcoming the problem of waterlogging in this housing area of Summarecon Bandung. In addition to functioning to mitigate flooding in the housing area, these elements of green infrastructure also function as green open spaces that can be used by residents for recreational and sports activities. The application of green infrastructure in this area is not only aimed at reducing the risk of flooding, but also to improve the quality of the environment and support the sustainability of the local ecosystem around this housing area. Through good management, the green infrastructure network in Summarecon Bandung is expected to create a balance between physical housing development and environmental preservation. This is also an effort for sustainable urban development in East Bandung. This study emphasizes the importance of integrating physical and social environmental aspects in designing more environmentally friendly housing areas.
