History

edit

Early operational

edit

Corridor 6 began its trial run in December 2006 and inaugurated on January 27, 2007, along with Corridor 4, 5, and 7.[2][3][4] Until c. 2009, the corridor terminates at Halimun BRT station, before it was extended to Dukuh Atas 2 (now Galunggung).[citation needed]

From its early operational in 2007 until c. 2015-2017, Corridor 6 was considered to have poor service, due to of its not roadworthy bus fleets,[5][6] lackness of park and ride services, lackness of facilities on BRT stations, and unsterilized bus lanes from personal vehicles.[7]

Service improvement

edit

Since all facilities and services were considered poor, Transjakarta has made a lot of major and minor improvements, one of them by sterilizing the bus lane and revitalizing three BRT stations, Ragunan, SMK 57 (now Simpang Ragunan), and Jati Padang stations in September 2022[8][9][10] which were completed and reopened on December 26, 2022, February 15 and March 4, 2023, respectively.[11][12][13] Corridor 6 is no longer considered to have poor service currently.

Ragunan–Kuningan express service

edit

On May 8, 2023, Transjakarta launched three express services on selected corridors, namely Ragunan–Underpass Kuningan (Corridor 6), Grogol–Semanggi (Corridor 9), and Pluit–Kota (Corridor 12). The express service was launched to accelerate bus time travel during rush hours which only took 35 minutes. The express service only operates from 06:00 to 09:00.[1]
