While to accommodate the people going home after the festival, three TransJakarta bus corridors will operate round a clock. Those corridors are corridor I (Blok M-Kota), corridor III (Harmoni-Kalideres), and corridor IX (Pinang Ranti-Pluit).
“Just like the Amari (late night service), these three corridors will operate for 24-hour. So, no need to worry to go home late,” told Akbar.
