KAI Commuter Expands Surabaya Commuter Line to Probolinggo

Enhancing East Java Connectivity

KAI Commuter is set to extend its Surabaya-Pasuruan Commuter Line (Supas) service to Probolinggo, marking a significant expansion of Jakarta's Commuter Line system to East Java's transportation network. This development aims to enhance regional connectivity and stimulate economic activity in the area.

Economic and Social Impact

The decision to extend the commuter line is expected to have a positive impact on the local economy by improving mobility for residents in the region. The current service, which carries an average of 4,417 passengers daily and between 130,000 to 140,000 passengers monthly, is anticipated to see a significant increase in ridership following the expansion.

Infrastructure Development

The extension to Probolinggo represents part of KAI Commuter's ongoing efforts to develop and enhance Indonesia's rail transportation infrastructure. By expanding its services, KAI Commuter is not only improving the commuting experience but also contributing to the broader economic development of the regions it serves.
