JAKARTA - PT MRT Jakarta (Perseroda) recorded a total of 4,195,303 customers using the MRT service throughout January 2026. The average daily traffic in that month reached 135,332 customers.

MRT Jakarta Corporate Secretary Division Head, Rendy Primartantyo, said this trend continued the growth that had been seen throughout 2025.

From January to December 2025, a total of 46,449,629 customers were recorded using MRT Jakarta. On average, daily transportation throughout 2025 reached 127,259 customers per day.

"This achievement reflects the consistency of the growth in the number of customers as well as the increasing public confidence in rail-based public transportation in Jakarta. This positive trend continues at the beginning of next year," said Rendy Primartantyo in his statement, Friday, February 13.

Entering January 2026, the spike was seen especially on weekdays. On Monday to Friday, the number of passengers reached 159,492 customers per day. While on Saturday and Sunday it reached 91,406 customers per day.

"The consistency of the number of transportation on weekdays above 150-160 thousand customers per day shows the enthusiasm of the public to use public transportation on weekdays," he said.

The station with the highest number of customers in January 2026 is the Dukuh Atas BNI Station with 753,380 customers. The second position is occupied by the Blok M BCA Station with 514,064 customers, followed by the HI Bank Jakarta Roundabout Station with 435,810 customers.

Next, Lebak Bulus Station of Bank Syariah Indonesia recorded 433,516 customers and Bendungan Hilir Station with 308,421 customers. MRT Jakarta also recorded the customer's favorite travel relationship is Dukuh Atas BNI - Blok M BCA with a contribution of 4.43 percent of total travel.

The relationship illustrates the movement from the Dukuh Atas area which is developing as a node of intermodal integration to Blok M which is the center of urban community activities.

To encourage an increase in the number of passengers, MRT Jakarta is partnering with various parties, ranging from the culinary sector, shopping centers, health, education, to tourist ticket promotions.

Collaboration with feeder transport operators (feeder) also contributes significantly. The feeder mode is said to account for around 22-23 percent of the total ridership of the Jakarta MRT.

"The presence of this feeder transport will have an impact not only on the increase in the number of transportation, but also encourage the culture of using a vehicle sharing platform (ride sharing)," explained Rendy.

Since May 2023, the weekend operating hours have been extended to 05.00 to 24.00. The addition of service hours is also applied when there are large-scale activities along the MRT line, such as cultural art festivals and New Year's Eve celebrations.

In terms of services, MRT Jakarta is developing digital features through the MyMRTJ application. Users can buy tickets, exchange points for promos, to access entertainment features.

Group ticket purchases of up to five tickets per account via the Android app are also available to make traveling together easier.

In addition, there are bank electronic money top-up machines at each station, QR paper ticket machines, to QR mobile ticket machines carried by officers when the station is crowded.

"PT MRT Jakarta (Perseroda) thanks the public for placing their trust in the MRT Jakarta service and its feeder partners so that more people use MRT Jakarta in their daily mobility," he added.
