JAKARTA - This afternoon, the Jakarta MRT service operates normally again as of 16.15 WIB. Previously, the operation of the Jakarta MRT had experienced electrical problems and service termination due to fallen trees.
"The train on the route from Lebak Bulus Station at the HI Bank Jakarta Roundabout Station has been operating again since 16.15 WIB," said Head of the Corporate Secretary Division of PT MRT Jakarta (Perseroda) Rendy Primartantyo in his statement, Thursday, November 20.
Rendy revealed that the waiting time between trains or headways is normal, which is 5 minutes during peak hours and 10 minutes outside of peak hours, again implemented starting at 17.00 WIB.
"Thank you for the trust given to MRT Jakarta as a mode of transportation for a safe, comfortable and reliable choice," said Rendy.
Previously, the cessation of MRT Jakarta's operations due to disturbances occurred since 10.26 WIB. The disturbance occurred due to a fallen tree on Jalan Sisingamangaraja, Kebayoran Baru, or in the route transition area from Senayan Mastercard Station to ASEAN Station.
This causes damage to the structure and disruption of the electricity network.
"At the time of the incident, it was recorded that five series were at the station and three series were on track," said Rendy.
When the train service was stopped, MRT officers immediately asked all passengers to get off the train and go to the nearest station with the officer's guide in the field. A number of passengers took turns leaving the carriage in the evacuation process.
"MRT Jakarta has completed the evacuation process according to procedures for 524 customers from a number of train and affected station areas," he said.
