Comprehensive Safety Initiative

PT Kereta Api Indonesia (Persero) has taken significant steps to enhance rail safety by closing 316 rail crossings in 2025. This initiative is part of a broader safety strategy that includes collaboration with various stakeholders such as government agencies, police, military, and other related institutions. The closures target crossings identified as high-risk for accidents.

Public Education and Regulatory Enforcement

The railway company is not only focusing on physical safety measures but also on public education. KAI's Vice President of Corporate Communication, Anne Purba, emphasized that safety can be strengthened through public compliance. The company urges the public to stop at crossings, obey traffic signs, and wait until it is safe to cross. This educational effort aims to foster a culture of safety among road users.

Collaborative Efforts for Enhanced Safety

The initiative to close 316 rail crossings in 2025 demonstrates KAI's commitment to creating a safer transportation environment. By working with various government levels and agencies, KAI is addressing safety concerns proactively. The closures are expected to significantly reduce the risk of accidents at these locations, thereby protecting both road users and train passengers.
