KRL Jabotabek Lines.svg

KA Commuter Jabodetabek, commonly known as Commuterline or KRL (Kereta Rel Listrik, Electric Multiple Unit) is a commuter rail system in the Jakarta metropolitan area, Indonesia. KA Commuter Jabodetabek is operated by KAI Commuter Jabodetabek (KCJ), a subsidiary of Kereta Api Indonesia, Indonesian national railway company. The infrastructure are owned by Kereta Api Indonesia and some of the stations and lines are used concurrently with regular intercity trains.

KA Commuter serves commuters in Jakarta, Bogor, Depok, Tangerang, South Tangerang, and Bekasi. The current rolling stock are composed by used Japanese trains from Tokyo Metro, Toei Subway, Japan Railways and Tokyu, with some local-produced trains from Industri Kereta Api (INKA).

History

In 1923, before Indonesian declaration of independence, Staatsspoorwegen (SS), a Dutch colonial railways company, built the first electrified railway from Tanjung Priok to Meester Cornelis (Jatinegara) and began operation in 1925 with 3000-series locomotives from SLM–BBC (Swiss Locomotive and Machine Works - Brown Boveri & Cie), 3100-series electric locomotives from AEG Germany, 3200-series locomotives from Werkspoor Netherlands and passenger coaches from Westinghouse and General Electric. The electrification project continued in 1927 in an existing railway which served around Batavia and neighboring cities.

After independence in 1945, the railway operation was taken over by Djawatan Kereta Api Repoeblik Indonesia (Indonesian Railways Bureau, now PT Kereta Api). In 1976, the old locomotives and coaches were replaced with electric trains from Japan. The commuter system was started in 2000, integrating railway lines covered under PTKA's Division of First Operational Areas (Daop 1 Jakarta) and the said area was taken under its subsidiary, PT KAI Commuter Jabodetabek, in 2008.

The modernization of the commuter railway system was started in 2011 by greatly reducing the number of lines from 37 point-to-point routes to 6 integrated lines, removal of express services, and simplifying the classes into 2 service classes (Economy class or non-air conditioned train–subsidized by Ministry of Transportation–and Commuter class or air-conditioned train) which stops at every station. On July 25, 2013, the economy class discontinued, leaving the Commuter class as the sole service class throughout the network.[2]

Due to extreme crowding, unruly passengers (colloquially called Atappers) had been riding on top of the trains en masse, but that has since been brought under control with physical barriers. In July 2013, the operator introduced the Commet (Commuter Electronic Ticketing) system replacing the old paper ticket system and changing the old fare system into 'progressive fare' system, as well as modernization of all 80 serving stations.

Starting on April 1, 2015 the number of trips per day increased to 872, dominated by Bogor/Depok route and Bekasi route with 391 trips and 153 trips per day, respectively. Headway of Bogor route is 5 minutes, while Bekasi route is still 12 minutes.[3]

In July 2015, KA Commuter Jabodetabek served more than 850,000 passengers per day, which is almost triple of the 2011 figures, but still less than 3.5% of all Jabodetabek commutes.[4] It is predicted will serve 1.2 million passengers per day in 2019.[5]

Two expansion project are currently underway. Green Line (Tanah Abang - Maja) is being extended to Rangkasbitung, while Blue Line (Jakarta Kota - Bekasi) is being extended to Cikarang. Four new stations will be built in the Blue Line extension. Both project will electrify the existing regular rail tracks and are expected to be operational by late 2016.[6]

In addition to new stations in Blue Line extension, three other stations will be reactivated: one station on Pink Line (Ancol) and two stations on Yellow Line (Pondok Rajeg and Gunung Putri).[6]

Service Routes

Since the modernization project in 2011, the system has 7 integrated commuter lines which serve Greater Jakarta. The network route map recognised by color coded and destination of final station.

Passengers may purchase ticket for single or multiple journeys. Single-journey cards (Tiket Harian Berjaminan/THB) may be purchased at any ticket counters or C-VIM vending machines, available in some stations. Rp 10,000 deposit will be levied on top of the fare to be paid.

However, if the card is not used or recharged for 7 days, the card will expire and the cannot be refunded.

Passengers may also purchase ticket for multiple journeys (Kartu Multi-trip/KMT). KMT is priced at Rp 50,000 (including Rp 30,000 credit).[8] The card has no expiry date and can be used with a minimum credit of Rp 11,000, based on the highest available fare in the system. The card may be topped-up at the ticket counters or vending machines.

In addition to KCJ-issued cards, passengers may also purchase bank-issued cards. Unlike KCJ-issued cards which may only be used for train fares and station's park-and-ride facilities, these cards may also be used for payment for goods and services at selected merchants, gas stations, TransJakarta BRT, selected parking facilities, and toll road payments. Currently Commuterline accepts Mandiri e-Money,[9] BRIZZI,[9] BNI TapCash,[9] and flazz BCA.[10]

Fares

Fare is charged by distance traveled ('progressive fare'), Rp 2,000 for the first 25 kilometers and IDR 1,000 for every the next 10 kilometers.[11] The fare is subsidized by the Ministry of Transportation. For 2016, the government allocated Rp 1.1 trillion public service obligation to Commuterline[12]

Prior to the introduction of distance-based fare, the fare is determined by number of stations passed. The first five stations passed is charged at Rp 3000 and every next three stations charged at Rp 1000. Between July and November 2013, the charges were lowered to Rp 2000 and Rp 500 respectively, after the government subsidized the fare.[13] Number of passengers increased by 30% after one week of introduction of the new fares.[14]

Rolling stock

Three different series of Jabodetabek Railway rolling stock: 7000 series set 7117, 6000 series set 6171, and 8000 series set 8003 at Bogor Station, Indonesia.

<templatestyles src="Module:Hatnote/styles.css"></templatestyles>

Most of KRL Jabodetabek rolling stock are air-conditioned second-hand rail cars imported from Japan serving alongside a minority of domestically made air-conditioned cars made by Industri Kereta Api (INKA).

Train without air conditioning (mainly economy class) are no longer operated as KCJ (the operator) begins the single-service operation of air-conditioned for KRL Jabodetabek which means all train must be air-conditioned. One set of ex-economy class (Holec) has been retrofitted with air conditioning by INKA. Moreover, KAI (parent company of KCJ) stated that the economy class train are not feasible to use and the maintenance cost is high due to old age of train (some were made in 1976).

Trains are generally formed of 6 or 8 cars, with a capacity of 80–110 passengers per car. With the arrival of the ex-Japanese JR 205 series, PT. Kereta Api Indonesia will begin operation of 10-cars-consisted trainset.

Most KRL Ekonomi will be scrapped, but some will be preserved if there is a plan to preserve the first modern EMU in Indonesia.

The Toei 6000 series was the first air-conditioned train type to be scrapped in December 2015 due to a large number of newer secondhand 205 series trains displacing the aging 6000 series trains.[15]

Since 1 January 2016, the ex-JR East 103 series were also have been retired.

Non-AC rolling stock (All retired since 2013)

  • KRL Ekonomi BN-Holec (retired, some modified to become diesel commuter trains)
  • KRL Ekonomi Rheostat (KL3 series, scrapped or stored)
  • KRL Hitachi (scrapped or stored)
  • KRL ABB Hyundai (retired, some modified to become diesel commuter trains)
