Blok M bus terminal

Blok M bus terminal

From Warta Kota

I change city buses at the Blok M terminal and often feel annoyed at the disorder reigning in this well known area. The Jakarta Administration often praises this terminal as the most modern in the capital city. It is true that the other bus terminals are chaotic but the one at Blok M is no less disorganized.

Incoming and outgoing buses often disregard regulations especially at the entrance of the terminal. Most of the time terminal officials just look the other way. Only once in a while do they reprimand the offenders. Would-be passengers also create chaos at the entrance and at crossroads around the terminal causing traffic congestion on neighboring streets.

If traffic police and the terminal officials would supervise the proceedings, passengers would not be put at a disadvantage.
