Location

Grogol is a Transjakarta bus rapid transit station located on Kyai Tapa Street, Grogol, Grogol Petamburan, West Jakarta, serving Corridor 3. The station is located opposite Grogol Bus Terminal and is connected by a paid transfer skybridge to Grogol Reformasi station that serves Corridors 8 and 9.

History

Alongside Roxy, Grogol 1 BRT station was a late addition to Corridor 3, opened on 10 September 2008, two years after the corridor's opening. Before the station was built, eastbound Corridor 3 buses departing from Jelambar turned right towards S. Parman street and then turn left to Tomang Raya street, where Corridors 8 and 9 today run.

On 10 November 2013, the station was renamed Grogol 1: 12 Mei Reformasi (lit. Grogol 1: 12th May Reformation) to commemorate the Trisakti shootings on 12 May 1998 that triggered the Fall of New Order. The station, however, continued to be mentioned officially as simply Grogol 1.[1]

On 3 June 2023, the two Grogol stations (Grogol 1 and Grogol 2) were closed for revitalisation works, alongside Pulo Mas and Pasar Rumput stations. Passengers were advised to use the neighboring Jelambar station.[2] On 4 November 2023, the station reopened, although its Corridor 9 counterpart, Grogol 2, was still under construction. The station was renamed as simply Grogol, while Corridor 9's station was renamed Grogol Reformasi as a shortened version of the "12 Mei Reformasi" phrase.[3]

Building and layout

The station was originally medium-sized, with three bus bays on each side and a ramp to access the transfer linkway to Grogol Reformasi. After revitalisation works, the station features six bus bays on each side and has disabled-friendly toilets and lifts to access the transfer linkway.
