Jakarta As one of the leading independent urban areas in Indonesia, Jababeka Residence continues to strengthen its position as a Transit Oriented Development (TOD) center in the eastern corridor of Jakarta. The TOD concept, which integrates spatial planning with mass transportation, is a modern solution to create an efficient, environmentally friendly, and sustainable urban environment.
With a land area of 5,600 hectares, Jababeka has become home to thousands of residents and more than 2,000 national and multinational companies. Jababeka's commitment to presenting TOD not only supports the mobility of its citizens but also becomes a catalyst for economic growth in the Cikarang area and its surroundings.
One of Jababeka Residence's strategic steps in supporting TOD development is through collaboration with PT MRT Jakarta for the development of phase 3 MRT for the East-West route. This route is planned to connect Balaraja in Banten to Cikarang in West Java. The infrastructure will make Jababeka the main transit point, providing better access for commuters and business people in the Jabodetabek megapolitan area.

TOD is a real solution to create a modern, comfortable, and environmentally friendly environment," he said.
The existence of this MRT route is also expected to reduce people's dependence on private vehicles, which has been one of the main causes of congestion and air pollution in Jabodetabek. With the MRT, people can enjoy comfortable, safe, and efficient public transportation.
In addition to the MRT route, Jababeka has provided services for various other mass transportations, namely AO Shuttle, Damri, Primajasa and most recently Swatantra S01 Jababeka.
