The project reflects Transjakarta’s ongoing commitment to upgrading service standards, creating a public transport environment that is inclusive of persons with disabilities, senior residents, expectant mothers, and travelers with other specific needs.
The new elevator at the Dukuh Atas stop joins a growing list of similar facilities already functioning across various Transjakarta stations.

She added that installing the elevator at the Dukuh Atas stop aligns with Transjakarta’s mission to establish an inclusive and equal-access public transit network across the capital.
“We hope this improved accessibility will provide greater ease and comfort for residents in their daily mobility with Transjakarta,” she expressed, Monday (11/9).
The elevator project is targeted for completion in five months. Measures are in place to ensure that pedestrian access on the footbridge (JPO) at the Dukuh Atas BRT station remains fully functional while work is underway.
Commuters, however, are urged to stay vigilant and walk carefully around the construction zone.
“Transjakarta extends its apologies for any disruptions caused during the construction period. We deeply appreciate the cooperation of all passengers as we strive to realize a safer, more convenient, and inclusive public transportation network,” she concluded.
