KAI Strengthens Station Facilities Amid Growth in LRT Jabodebek Users
KAI continues to strengthen the reliability and safety of facilities at various LRT Jabodebek stations to ensure users experience a safe, comfortable, and reliable journey from the moment they enter the station area until they reach their final destination. Facility improvements are carried out through the optimisation of lighting systems, the rejuvenation of lifts and escalators, and the maintenance of station infrastructure that supports the smooth daily mobility of the public.
Throughout 2026, a number of facility enhancement works have been undertaken at several stations. These works include the addition and optimisation of lighting systems on the pedestrian bridge (JPO) at Pancoran Station, the entrance area and JPO at Kuningan Station, the JPO area and lift at Rasuna Said Station, as well as the addition of air conditioning units in the concourse area of Dukuh Atas Station.
In addition, KAI has implemented a rejuvenation and reliability improvement programme for lifts and escalators at a number of stations, including Jatimulya, Bekasi Barat, Jatibening Baru, and Cikunir 1. These works involve the replacement of various main components to maintain the safety, comfort, and reliability of the facilities used by the public every day. Meanwhile, corrective waterproofing maintenance on roofs has also been carried out at all LRT Jabodebek stations to keep facilities in optimal condition and provide comfort for users in various weather conditions.
Manager of Public Relations for LRT Jabodebek, Radhitya Mardika, stated that improving station facilities is an important part of maintaining the quality of safe and integrated public transport services. “Safety is the main foundation of public transport services. Therefore, every maintenance and facility improvement programme we carry out always prioritises safety aspects for both users and officers, so that users can carry out their activities safely and comfortably from the station area to their destination,” said Radhitya.
These facility improvement efforts are in line with the continued growth in the number of LRT Jabodebek users. In the January–May 2025 period, LRT Jabodebek served 10,727,798 users. Meanwhile, in the same period in 2026, it served 13,211,856 users. The increase in users is also reflected in the average number of weekday users, which rose from around 98,000 users in the January–May 2025 period to around 120,000 users in the same period in 2026. This condition shows the increasingly significant role of LRT Jabodebek in supporting the mobility of the Jabodetabek community.
He said that the availability of reliable facilities is an important factor in supporting the user travel experience, especially amid the community’s growing need for integrated and comfortable public transport. “LRT Jabodebek is part of the urban transport ecosystem that is connected to various other modes of transport. Therefore, facility improvements continue to be made so that users can switch modes more safely, comfortably, and smoothly. Ultimately, all these efforts are aimed at providing an increasingly better travel experience for the community,” he added.
KAI will continue to carry out maintenance and improvement of station facilities as part of its efforts to provide safe, comfortable, and integrated public transport services for the Jabodetabek community.
