Deskripsi:

In the near future Jabodetabek (Greater Jakarta) area will have a new railbase mass transit system which consists of Central Government Light Rail Train (CG-LRT) and Jakarta Local Government Light Rail Train (DKI-LRT). Currently, two CG-LRT corridors connecting Cibubur (Southeast of Jakarta) area and Bekasi (Eastern of Jakarta) area with City of Jakarta and DKI-LRT phase-1 of the first corridor connecting Kelapa Gading area with Velodrome at Pulo Mas area are under construction. Besides, the construction of Jakarta North-South MRT stage 1 connecting Southern part of Jakarta with Central part of Jakarta is also on progress. These new railbase mass transit shown in Figure 1, are expected to be in operation in the year of 2020. Meanwhile, in early 2016, the Central Government established a new agency under Ministry of Transportation called Badan Pengelola Transportasi Jabodetabek (BPTJ) which is responsible for all transportation issues in Jabodetabek (Greater Jakarta) Area.
