Location

Bundaran Senayan (abbreviated Bunsen) is a Transjakarta bus rapid transit station located on Jenderal Sudirman Street, Kebayoran Baru, Jakarta, Indonesia. It primarily serves Corridor 1, but also serves as the terminus of cross-corridor routes 9C and 10H, as well as the feeder route 1F serving Palmerah KRL station.

The name 'Bundaran Senayan' (Indonesian for 'Senayan Roundabout') is named after a roundabout with the same name to the southwest of this station, which is the southern end of the Jenderal Sudirman Street. The roundabout features the iconic Patung Pemuda Membangun (lit.'Youth Advancement Monument').

History

When it first opened in 2004 and was then-spelled as Bunderan Senayan, it was located right in front of Ratu Plaza shopping mall. It had three gates on each side of the platform, with only two gates serving passengers. In 2014, it was relocated slightly to the southwest, adjacent with the Ministry of State Apparatus Utilization and Bureaucratic Reform headquarters at south, to make way for the construction of the Senayan MRT station.[1][2]

On 31 May 2023, Bundaran Senayan station, alongside Karet Sudirman (now known as Karet) and Slipi Petamburan (now Petamburan) stations were closed for revitalisation works.[3] In preparation of the 43rd ASEAN Summit held on 4 – 7 September,[4] reconstruction of the new Bundaran Senayan station was sped up until its completion and reopening on 31 August 2023, just two months after closure.[4][5][6]

Building and layout

The new Bundaran Senayan station has an open-air design that allows the air to circulate freely. Having a similar design to that of Senayan Bank Jakarta and Karet stations, it has multiple tall pillars supporting an aluminium panel. The staffed ticket counter was also removed and replaced with a vending machine. The building is slightly longer than before.[7] The unique feature in Bundaran Senayan is the two trembesi (samanea saman) trees inside, left untouched from the revitalisation and provided void to grow freely.[8] Aside from that, the connection bridge of Bundaran Senayan station also has an artistic design after being revitalised earlier in 2019, as well as those in Senayan Bank Jakarta and Polda Metro Jaya BRT stations.[9]
