JAKARTA - The DKI Jakarta Provincial Government will hold another Car Free Day (CFD) on Jalan HR Rasuna Said, Kuningan, South Jakarta, on Sunday, June 7, 2026.
The activity which took place from 05.30 to 09.00 WIB was accompanied by traffic engineering, provision of parking bags, and support for public transportation services to anticipate the impact of road closures.
The implementation of HBKB in the Rasuna Said area is a follow-up to the evaluation after the first trial which was held in conjunction with the inauguration of the 499th Anniversary of the City of Jakarta on May 10. The Provincial Government assessed that the public's need for public spaces continued to increase as the community's activity in the CFD area increased.
Data from the DKI Jakarta Transportation Office (Dishub) shows that the number of pedestrians during the HBKB implementation from January to May 2026 reached 291,852 people or increased by 9.74 percent compared to the same period the previous year which was recorded at 265,952 people.
Head of the DKI Jakarta Transportation Office Budi Awaludin said the expansion of the HBKB location was carried out to provide an alternative public space for Jakarta residents.
"We see the public's need for public spaces continues to increase. Therefore, the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government presents an alternative HBKB location in the Rasuna Said area so that more residents can enjoy a healthy, comfortable, and pedestrian-friendly city space," Budi told reporters, Friday, June 5.
According to him, the implementation of HBKB is also part of efforts to encourage changes in the pattern of community mobility that is more environmentally friendly.
"We invite Jakarta residents to experience a new experience of activities in the healthier and more comfortable HR Rasuna Said corridor. At the same time, we ensure that people's mobility continues to run smoothly through traffic engineering and public transportation support that has been prepared," he said.
The Rasuna Said HBKB corridor has a length of around 4.4 kilometers. The area closed to motor vehicles stretches from Jalan Gembira to Jalan Raya Casablanca for the north-south direction, as well as from Jalan Prof Dr Satrio to Jalan Setiabudi Utara Raya and Jalan Setiabudi Tengah for the opposite direction.
To maintain the smooth flow of traffic during the event, DKI Dishub has prepared 10 routes for diverting vehicle traffic. Drivers from Manggarai to Tanah Abang or Karet are directed through Jalan Sultan Agung, Jalan Galunggung, Jalan Karet Pasar Baru Timur, to Jalan RM Margono Djojohadikoesoemo. Conversely, vehicles from Tanah Abang to Manggarai can pass through Jalan RM Margono Djojohadikoesoemo, Jalan Galunggung, and Jalan Sultan Agung.
Meanwhile, vehicles from Menteng to Kuningan are diverted through Jalan Galunggung, Jalan Gembira, Jalan Kuningan Persada, Jalan Kuningan Mulia, Jalan Achmad Bakrie Barat to Jalan Casablanca. Vehicles from Gatot Subroto to Menteng can use the Jalan Prof Dr Satrio, Jalan Denpasar Raya, Jalan Setiabudi, Jalan Setiabudi Utara Raya, Jalan Setiabudi Tengah, to Jalan Galunggung.
Dishub also prepared special access arrangements to places of worship, hotels, meeting buildings, and a number of embassies along the Rasuna Said corridor. The traffic engineering was prepared so that community activities could continue without interfering with the implementation of HBKB.
In addition to traffic engineering, DKI Dishub provides four off-street parking pocket locations with a total capacity of 1,914 car parking spaces and 1,910 motorcycle parking spaces.
Residents can also still access the area using public transportation. There are seven Transjakarta routes that cross the area around HBKB, namely the L13 route (Puri Beta - Flyover Kuningan Express), 13E (Puri Beta - Flyover Kuningan), 4D (Pulo Gadung - Kuningan), 6 (Ragunan - Galunggung), 6A (Ragunan - City Hall via Kuningan), 6H (Senen - Lebak Bulus), and 6M (Manggarai Station - Block M).
Meanwhile, the Jabodebek LRT service, the relationship between Dukuh Atas-Harjamukti and Dukuh Atas-Jati Mulya, can be accessed through the Rasuna Said LRT Station and the Setiabudi LRT Station. As for the Transjakarta stops that can still be used by the public are at Setiabudi Stop, Kuningan Madya Stop, Kuningan Rubber Stop, and Rasuna Said Stop.
In addition to preparing traffic engineering, the DKI Provincial Government has also coordinated with houses of worship, hotels, meeting buildings, and a number of embassies along the Rasuna Said corridor to ensure that access to these locations remains available during the implementation of HBKB.
"We have prepared all aspects of the implementation of the Rasuna Said HBKB so that the public can enjoy this activity safely, comfortably, and pleasantly," said Budi.
He also appealed to the public who would pass through the Kuningan area on Sunday morning to plan their trip early and follow the instructions of officers in the field.
"We urge the public to plan their trips early, follow the instructions of field officers, and use public transportation. Hopefully, HBKB on Jalan HR Rasuna Said can be a new and enjoyable experience while bringing cleaner air and a healthier environment for Jakarta residents," he concluded.
