To improve public transportation services in and around Jakarta, the government has constructed a Light Rail Transit (LRT) system. This transportation mode spans 82.93 km, with an estimated cost of Rp 23 trillion based on data from the Committee for Acceleration of Priority Infrastructure Provision.
The LRT network construction is divided into two phases. The first phase includes the Cawang-Cibubur, Cawang-Kuningan-Dukuh Atas, and Cawang-Bekasi Timur lines, totaling 44.43 km. The second phase comprises the Dukuh Atas-Palmerah-Senayan, Cibubur-Bogor, and Palmerah-Grogol lines, totaling 38.5 km.
This LRT project aims to alleviate traffic congestion in the DKI Jakarta region and provide public transportation facilities. The first phase of the LRT is planned to be operational in 2018, in anticipation of the Asian Games to be held in Jakarta and Palembang.
