Bogor KRL services operate on single track from Pasar Minggu

KAI Commuter has announced that Commuter Line Bogor services are operating on a single track from Pasar Minggu Station to Manggarai Station in order to reduce delays caused by an obstruction on the Cawang-Tebet railway line.

“Commuter Line No.1183 on the Bogor–Jakarta Kota route struck a person on the Cawang-Tebet line, which caused damage to the braking system,” said KAI Commuter Public Relations Manager Leza Arlan in an official statement on Thursday.

As a result, Commuter Line services from Bogor to Jakarta are currently terminating at Manggarai.

In addition to the Bogor–Jakarta route, delays have also affected the Tangerang Commuter Line after Commuter Line No.1914 on the Duri–Tangerang route struck a motorcycle at an illegal level crossing.

“This incident also caused damage to the front of the KRL,” Leza said.

To reduce delays on the Tangerang line, Tangerang Commuter Line services are operating on a single track on the Rawabuaya–Batu Ceper section.

Leza said KAI Commuter is still handling and repairing the affected KRL rolling stock and working to clear the backlog of delayed Commuter Line services.

KAI Commuter apologised for the delays on the Bogor and Tangerang lines caused by damage to KRL rolling stock resulting from external factors.

“We urge passengers to follow the instructions and information provided by staff on the ground,” Leza said.
