JAKARTA - PT Transjakarta provides a temporary bus stop to replace the Velodrome Bus Stop service on Jalan Pemuda, East Jakarta. For the time being, the Velodrome Bus Stop was closed due to the construction of the 1B phase of the Jakarta LRT construction.

"This adjustment is carried out as an alternative to the closure of the Velodrome Bus Stop temporarily to facilitate customer mobility," said Head of the Public Relations and CSR Department of PT Transjakarta Wibowo in his statement, Monday, July 15.
