4 Transjakarta Bus Routes Diverted By Fires Near RSPAD And DPR Demo
PT Transport Jakarta (Transjakarta) has diverted a number of bus routes due to a fire in a residential area near the Gatot Subroto Army Hospital and a demonstration in front of the DPR building.
"In connection with the fire incident around Jalan RSPAD, Central Jakarta and the closure of lanes around the DPR/MPR RI, South Jakarta today, it has had an impact on four Transjakarta services that experienced route diversion," said Head of Transjakarta Corporate Secretary Division Apriastini Bakti Bugiansri in his statement, Monday, March 13.
Apri said that this policy was taken so that people who usually use these four services can still be served by their mobility.
"The service will return to normal operations when the bus can be crossed again," he said.
Here are the four routes that have been diverted:
1. Senen Tanah Abang (1P) For the time being, the Tanah Abang direction does not serve Atrium bus stops to stop RSPAD 2, while the opposite direction operates normally.
