PT Transportation Jakarta (Transjakarta) is about to operate the non-BRT route Duren Tiga - Blok M via Bangka Raya (6W). The route will serve the community starting tomorrow, Thursday (12/28).

This is to maximize service and accelerate bus trip times

PT Transjakarta's Public Relations Department and CSR Head, Wibowo said the opening of this new route was in response to the demand for community mobility in the Mampang area, South Jakarta, and its surrounding areas.

"Hopefully, it can be an additional transit option for customers who will continue their journey to Ragunan by transiting at the Immigration Bus Stop," he expressed, Wednesday (12/27).

According to him, it also increases the reach of Transjakarta ecosystem services. There would be six single buses operated every day from 5 AM to 9.30 PM with a total of 50 stopping points.

"The operation of the Duren Tiga - Blok M route via Bangka Raya (6M) increases Transjakarta service coverage to 88.62 percent from the previous 88.47 percent," he explained.

Transjakarta was also making modifications to the integration service on the Blok M - University of Indonesia (UI) route into Blok M - Cipedak. Starting Thursday (12/22), the route modification would bring the total stopping points to 69 points.

"This is to maximize service and accelerate bus trip times with 10 medium-sized buses serving the community from 5 AM to 10 PM," he stated.
