Location

Pasar Baru is a Transjakarta bus rapid transit station located on Pos Street, Pasar Baru, Sawah Besar, Central Jakarta, Indonesia, which is the northeastern terminus of Corridor 8. It is located near the historic Pasar Baru market, Jakarta Art Building, and Lapangan Banteng.

Pasar Baru originally catered as the eastern terminus of Corridor 3 towards Kalideres. Since 2023, it is now temporarily redirected to Monumen Nasional as the original terminus of Corridor 8, Harmoni, had been relocated into small temporary buildings due to the construction of the Jakarta MRT North–South Line extension. Thus, Corridor 8 is currently terminates here at Pasar Baru.[1]

History

The station opened on 15 January 2006 as the eastern terminus of Corridor 3. On 16 December 2020, the station was closed for a month for revitalisation works, and was reopened on 21 January 2021 with a new design and an extra bus bay. The station's revitalisation also marked the start of a project to rebuild or renovate 46 BRT stations across the Transjakarta network.[2][3]

On 4 March 2023, due to the construction of the Jakarta MRT phase 2A, which resulted in the closure of the original Harmoni Central interchange, Corridor 8 was extended to terminate at this station, as well as serving Pecenongan and Juanda BRT stations. To prevent overcrowding from Corridor 3 and 8 passengers, Transjakarta decided that Corridor 3 would cease operations to Pasar Baru and was rerouted to terminate at Bundaran HI station instead (until further shortening to terminate at Monumen Nasional).[1][4] However, it is unconfirmed whether Corridor 3 will return to terminate here, given that the station still carries the Corridor 3 station number of "3-16".
