The plan of integrating Go-Jek and Transjakarta, which DKI Jakarta\u2019s Governor Basuki Tjahaja Purnama always dreams of, will soon
\nbe materialized. PT Transjakarta\u2019s Main Director Antonius Kosasih stated that there\u2019ll be a new app called Go Busway which is
\ninstalled in Go-Jek app which functions as a bus locator. The MoU upon the creation of this app will be ratified before the Eid
\nal-Fitr.<\/p>\n
As Detik reported, Kosasih explained that Go Busway is a specific app which will be inside Go-Jek. Through the app, Transjakarta
\ncustomers can determine the location of the bus in each corridor as well as the ETA of each bus.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur passengers can track the location of the bus although they\u2019re not in the shelter. This is one of our ways in serving
\nTransjakarta customers and part of the Passenger Information System which we\u2019re currently creating in Transjakarta, which in
\ntime must be followed by all operators,\u201d Kosasih told MetroTV News.<\/p>\n
He also added that in the future, the app will be equipped with a rating system so that users may assess the performance of the
\ndrivers as well as recognize them. Further, he also claimed that the app can assist passengers who want to continue their trip
\nusing Go-Jek.<\/p>\n
As cited from CNN Indonesia, Kosasih explained, \u201cThis app (Go Busway) may also be used to connect people who want to order
\nGo-Jek, which will wait them at the nearest overpass to their location.\u201d<\/p>\n
This creating-an-app partnership is Transjakarta\u2019s second after previously being involved in the development of Jakarta
\nSmartcity app. Kosasih stated that this is a mutually beneficial one since both PT. Transjakarta and the local government of DKI
\nJakarta don\u2019t lose any of their money.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe plan is that we ratify the MoU before Eid al-Fitr and the app will be available before the end of this year. This is a
\nmutually beneficial partnership with Go-Jek. Both Transjakarta and the local government of DKI Jakarta don\u2019t spend even a bit,\u201d
\nKosasih claimed.<\/p>\n
This Go Busway app is planned to be specially designed for iOS and Android. Kosasih was also optimistic that the app may
\nfacilitate people in getting on Busway.<\/p>",
