Pramono to Review CFD Timing on Rasuna Said, Set to End Earlier

Jakarta - Governor of DKI Jakarta Pramono Anung Wibowo will review the timing of the Motor Vehicle-Free Day (HBKB) or Car Free Day (CFD) in the HR Rasuna Said area so that it can end earlier. According to him, the review is being conducted due to requests from the public who want their worship in the area not to be disturbed. “The public’s enthusiasm is extraordinary. However, there are requests, especially from places in Rasuna Said that have, sorry, worship services. The worship services usually start at 10 a.m. So, we have decided that for Rasuna Said, the Car Free Day will still start at 5.30 a.m., but it will definitely end earlier than that,” said Pramono in East Jakarta on Monday. He also admitted that he will review the CFD timing in the Sudirman-Thamrin area. However, he has not yet decided on the new CFD time in that area. He assured that the new CFD timing in the Sudirman-Thamrin area will be decided before 1 June 2026. “For Sudirman-Thamrin, we will start at 5.30 a.m., end at 10 a.m. or 9.30 a.m., we will decide soon before 1 June. But specifically for Rasuna Said, of course I am considering input and suggestions from the public who will be worshipping on that day,” Pramono explained. According to him, Jalan Rasuna Said, which previously had hundreds of abandoned monorail pillars, has now changed its face, especially after those pillars were demolished. Pramono said that although construction on Jalan Rasuna Said is still ongoing, public enthusiasm is quite high, so the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government is holding CFD activities and others in the area. The CFD activities in Rasuna Said, he said, will be implemented effectively starting from 1 June 2026, after all work in the area is completed.
