JAKARTA - Head of the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency, Syafrin Liputo, said that his party will continue to disseminate information regarding the implementation of tariff integration for public transportation modes with a maximum cost of IDR 10,000 for the next month.
This socialization was carried out even though the tariff policy for the integration of Transjakarta, Jakarta MRT, and Jakarta LRT modes had been implemented since yesterday.
"With the massive number of people who use integrated public transportation services, we also have to massively conduct outreach to reach all users. Of course socialization takes time. For all of these users, we are trying to do socialization no later than one month ahead," Syafrin told reporters, Friday, August 12.
Currently, the public can only enjoy the integration fee only through the JakLingko application. This public transportation guide application can be downloaded via the Play Store and App Store.
Meanwhile, the use of electronic money cards from various banks that are commonly used by customers has not been fully served by the integration tariff facility.
Therefore, during this socialization period, the DKI Provincial Government is still updating the electronic card system so that it can be used as an integrated tariff payment.
"For electronic money cards, of course, Mandiri and Bank DKI have joined now. As for other banks, due to internal regulations, this is still in progress, such as BNI, BRI, and BCA," said Syafrin.
In addition, not all Transjakarta buses have an integrated fare payment system installed. The application of this integration tariff is still not applicable to non-BRT (nonbus rapid transit) Transjakarta modes outside the busway, such as Metrotrans, Minitrans, and Microtrans with scan-in tickets in the bus fleet.
However, Syafrin ensured that after the socialization period ended, all Transjakarta buses had been served by the integration fare. "We hope that no later than September 2, the tap on bus tool has been upgraded," he continued.
For information, the use of tariffs for the integration of Transjakarta, MRT Jakarta, and LRT Jakarta transportation modes, a maximum of Rp. 10,000, has been implemented starting today. This integration tariff has only been applied through ticket purchases on the JakLingko application.
When using the integration tariff through the JakLingko application, users of transportation modes are only charged a maximum travel fee of IDR 10,000 for up to 180 minutes or 3 hours.
The application of the maximum transportation integration tariff of Rp. 10,000 was determined by the Governor of DKI Jakarta Anies Baswedan through Governor's Decree Number 733 of 2022 concerning the Amount of Mass Public Transport Service Tariff Packages.
The initial fee for the integration fare is IDR 2,500, which will be charged to passengers when entering the bus stop, station, or passenger transport service (feeder).
After paying the initial fee, the next trip fare paid by the passenger is based on the distance traveled, which is IDR 250 per kilometer. Then, there is a maximum one-time fare of IDR 10,000.
In this condition, the passenger does not leave the mode of transportation since the first time he puts the electronic payment instrument down until he ends the trip by putting the payment instrument back on the tap out machine.
If a passenger wants to make a transit from one mode of transportation to another, then the transfer is done at the bus stop or integration station that is already available.
Meanwhile, if in one trip the passenger spends more than 180 minutes of travel time, then apart from the maximum number of fare as intended, the fare package for the next trip will be calculated.
