Jakarta’s city government has made huge investments in expanding and improving public transport in recent years.
Between 2017 and 2021, Jakarta doubled its public transport coverage from 42% to 82%, contributing to a shift of 9.3% from cars and 21.7% from motorcycles to bus rapid transit. The city is also on track to provide 95% of all residents with public transport access within 500 metres of their home by the end of 2022.
Through Mikotrans, TransJakarta, and the expansion and improvement of public transport networks across the city, travelling has been made affordable and accessible, opening up Jakarta for millions of people and creating new good, green jobs in the process.
