Location

Lebak Bulus is a Transjakarta bus rapid transit station located on Pasar Jumat Street, Lebak Bulus, Cilandak, South Jakarta, Indonesia. It is the southern terminus of Corridor 8 and is located near the Lebak Bulus Bank Syariah Indonesia MRT station on the MRT North-South Line.

History

The station opened on 21 February, 2009, as the southern terminus of Corridor 8, which terminated at Harmoni until 2023. Before the construction of Jakarta MRT, the station had a large structure with a spacious interior. The station was located right in front of the bus terminal. The station had six bus bays on each side, with an additional six on the east-facing side. The station was accessible through the main entrance, located in the middle.[1][2]

To accommodate the construction of the MRT, the original station structure was demolished in 2015, and a temporary structure was built south of the bus terminal.[3] The new structure was much smaller and narrower, having only six bus bays facing north.

During the construction of the depot for the MRT, the temporary structure was relocated again to the western side of the under-construction MRT station in 2017. The new structure had exactly the same design as the preceding temporary structure. There was originally a temporary street south of the station, so the platform faced south. After that street was closed, and the street underneath the station reopened for public access, the south-facing platform was closed, and the north-facing side was rebuilt to be the new side platform. This is the current structure still in service today.[4]

Building and layout

The station is one of the few terminus stations located on the sidewalk. It has six bus bays divided into two sections. The station is located in front of Exit D of the MRT station.

Controversy

The current Lebak Bulus BRT station has attracted criticism for being undersized, as operations still use the temporary structure that was constructed during the construction of the MRT. After the MRT began operations in 2019, the station suffered from overcrowding, as passengers transferring from the MRT can only change at Lebak Bulus for Corridor 8.[5] There have been calls for the station to be rebuilt.
