Jakarta Sets Rp8 Trial Fare for LRT Kelapa Gading-Manggarai Line
Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung sets a promotional Rp8 trial fare for the Kelapa Gading-Manggarai LRT route ahead of its official inauguration.
Jakarta's Governor Pramono Anung Wibowo announced a trial fare of Rp8 per passenger for the Kelapa Gading-Manggarai LRT line, aiming to honor the spirit of Indonesian Independence Day. The fare will be in effect until the official inauguration by President Prabowo Subianto. Pramono stressed that he would not disclose the start date of the trial until the actual inauguration day.
He expressed hope that the LRT launch would be a significant milestone for public transportation in Jakarta, with an estimated daily capacity of 70,000 to 80,000 passengers, operating from 5:00 a.m. to midnight WIB. The operating hours differ from other transit modes in the city and are expected to alleviate urban traffic congestion.
Additionally, Pramono instructed the City Parks and Forestry Agency to clean and green the space beneath the elevated LRT structure, with the green efforts anticipated to be completed soon.
