Jakarta's New LRT Line Finished, Sets Rp5,000 Flat Fare

Jakarta's new LRT line connecting Kelapa Gading to Manggarai has been completed, according to Governor Pramono Anung Wibowo. The line is now ready for its official launch, set to be inaugurated by President Prabowo Subianto. The Governor and City Hall officials recently conducted a final inspection at Manggarai LRT Station, confirming that the infrastructure, including elevated tracks and rail systems, is fully complete.

The Ministry of Transportation is conducting final system testing. The Jakarta Provincial Government had initially planned for the inauguration on August 26, 2026, but flexibility has been shown to accommodate President Subianto's schedule, which includes overseeing emergency responses to the East Nusa Tenggara earthquake and forest fires in Kalimantan.

During its initial phase, the fare for this route will remain at the flat rate of Rp5,000. City officials plan to review pricing after the initial period, with 15 targeted groups in Jakarta receiving free access. The Kelapa Gading-Manggarai line is expected to handle up to 80,000 passengers daily during early operations. Future plans include expanding the network to link Velodrome to the high-speed rail hub and connecting Kelapa Gading to the Jakarta International Stadium, eventually extending toward Dukuh Atas.
