PT Kereta Api Indonesia (Persero), in collaboration with PT Industri\nKereta Api (Persero) or INKA, has completed the maintenance programme\nfor seven KRL iE305\/CLI-225 trainsets. All units are now ready for\noperation and, as of Tuesday, 6 October 2026, have resumed supporting\npublic services on the Bogor Line.<\/p>\n
The completion of the programme occurred faster than anticipated. The\nfinal trainset was completed on 5 October 2026, four days ahead of the\noriginal target date of 9 October 2026. Anne Purba, Vice President of\nCorporate Communication at KAI, stated that this acceleration was\nachieved through intensive coordination between KAI and INKA, while\nensuring every unit met all safety and reliability requirements before\nreturning to duty.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe seven trainsets that underwent the maintenance programme are\nready and, starting 6 October, are once again supporting public services\non the Bogor Line. The entire programme was completed four days ahead of\nthe final target, following rigorous inspection and testing phases\nbefore the units were declared operational,\u201d Anne said in a written\nstatement in Jakarta on Monday (5\/10\/2026).<\/p>\n
Anne noted that the work was carried out gradually since September\n2026. Of the seven trainsets, two were completed on schedule, while the\nremaining five were finished between one to six days ahead of their\nrespective targets. \u201cOne trainset was even completed six days early,\nmoving from a target of 5 October to 29 September 2026,\u201d Anne added.<\/p>\n
The returning KRL units are SF12 configurations, consisting of 12\ncarriages per trainset. The readiness of these SF12 units is vital for\nsupporting service capacity on routes with high passenger mobility. The\nBogor Line remains one of the busiest routes within the Jabodetabek\nCommuter Line network; between January and August 2026, it served\n105,704,913 passengers, averaging approximately 435,000 passengers per\nday.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe return of these seven trainsets increases the readiness of our\nrolling stock to serve public mobility on the Bogor Line. While the\naccelerated completion is a positive result, safety remains our primary\nstandard before any unit is returned to service,\u201d said Anne.<\/p>\n
Overall, the Jabodetabek KRL service served 277,272,682 passengers\nfrom January to August 2026, representing a 6.32 per cent increase\ncompared to the 260,797,109 passengers recorded during the same period\nin 2025.<\/p>\n
Anne added that KAI, alongside KAI Commuter and INKA, continues to\nmaintain rolling stock readiness to support the travel needs of the\nJabodetabek population. \u201cWith the completion of this maintenance\nprogramme, seven trainsets can once again support the service capacity\nof the Bogor Line. KAI, together with KAI Commuter and INKA, will\ncontinue to ensure the readiness and reliability of our fleet to serve\npublic mobility,\u201d she concluded.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/maintenance-completed-7-krl-ie305-trainsets-finally-return-to-serve-bogor-line-1791247985", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
