Abstract

The Cikeruh River is located in the regency of Bandung and is part of Citarum River tributary. Flooding’s one of the problems that occur in Cikeruh River and it became an important issue in Bandung City as the river flow through economic area of the city. The flood that occurred on the Cikeruh River was caused by a high river with the discharge of 272.53 m3/s. But not only because of the high discharge in the river, but also influenced by backwater from the Upper Citarum River which confluence with Cikeruh River. From the flood modeling on the Cikeruh River, it was found that the height of the flood overflow could reach three meters with an almost even distribution of inundation in all locations. As an effort to provide solutions, alternative solutions are provided to overcome this problem, namely by normalizing rivers, river embankments, and retention ponds. Alternatives to river normalization and the construction of retention ponds are deemed unable to completely deal with flooding, so the most effective solution in dealing with this flood is the construction of embankments.
