Abstract
Managing epidemics will be more complicated for cities that have high levels of urbanization. This is exacerbated by the use of public transportation modes, which can be one of the places where there is a high risk of spreading the virus. Prevention of spreading through clean living patterns, and maintaining distance in open areas such as public vehicles, public places, and pedestrian routes is important to reduce the spread of COVID-19. This research aims to find out the condition of pedestrian ways in the Jakarta transit area to be able to plan the design of pedestrian ways following health protocols that can prevent the spread of the virus in the future-using descriptive methods. Data is obtained from secondary data and health regulations/protocols issued by data provider institutions related to COVID-19. Data were analyzed using the descriptive analysis to get the results of the discussion juxtaposed with related theories. The results showed that city planning needs innovation to prepare the city to be more resilient when facing a pandemic. Innovation planning in the pedestrian route widens the lane and circulation, using automatic doors in-transit area and new street furniture that can reduce the risk of spreading the virus.
Highlights
Managing epidemics is more complicated for cities with high levels of urbanization and has contemporary urbanization[1]
In Indonesia, the first case of contracting the coronavirus was due to contact with Japanese citizens who came to Indonesia to attend a dance

Summary
Managing epidemics is more complicated for cities with high levels of urbanization and has contemporary urbanization[1]. Jakarta is the capital of Indonesia, a city that has a high level of urbanization because it functions as a business and government center. From Bavaria, Corona spread so quickly to various regions in Germany[4, 3, 5]. In Indonesia, the first case of contracting the coronavirus was due to contact with Japanese citizens who came to Indonesia to attend a dance. This illustrates that interactions between people from different regions cause the spread of coronavirus
