Indonesia’s Transportation Ministry has unveiled a plan to extend the Jakarta MRT’s north-south line to South Tangerang, Banten, at an estimated cost of USD1.25 billion. The proposal was presented on June 12, 2025.
The extension will span 22.6 km along an elevated track, connecting 12 stations, including major areas like Ciputat, Pondok Cabe, Pamulang, Gaplek, and Serpong. All but one station will be located in South Tangerang. The southern terminus will shift from Lebak Bulus to the new Pondok Cabe Station. The line will also connect westward to Rawa Buntu Station.
Once operational, the extension is expected to serve over 204,000 daily passengers by 2030. Annual operating and maintenance costs are projected at around USD11.7 million. The government has committed to supporting the project through land provision and other non-fiscal measures to speed up development.
