JAKARTA - The Jabodebeka Integrated Highway (LRT) will officially start operating on August 18, 2023.
The Minister of Transportation, Budi Karya Sumadi, confirmed that the LRT after operating will carry 500,000 passengers every day.
"The Jabodebek LRT will carry 500,000 passengers per day," he said at Halim's LRT Station, Wednesday, June 28.
With the addition of this number of carriers, the LRT and KRT will carry as many as 1.7 million passengers per day.
In this trial, Budi revealed that the distance from Dukuh Atas Station to Jati Mulya only took 39 minutes and managed to cut a third of the distance from Jakarta Bekasi when passing the toll road.
"Ongkos that must be paid by all levels of society is very high when using private vehicles. Here it becomes fast, free of traffic jams and not pollution," explained Budi.
Then, he said, the LRT will also start conducting trials for the general public from July 12 to August 18 at a rate of IDR 1 per passenger.
"God willing, on July 12, we will start testing IDR 1 to August 18, which we hope the president can inaugurate," added Budi.
