KAI to Inaugurate Jatake Station in January 2026

Enhancing Jakarta's Transportation Infrastructure

PT Kereta Api Indonesia (KAI) is preparing to inaugurate Jatake Station in January 2026, representing a major development in Jakarta's transportation network. The station is strategically located in Kelurahan Jatake, Kecamatan Pagedangan, Kabupaten Tangerang. This new infrastructure project is part of KAI's broader strategy to strengthen public transportation services in Jakarta's buffer zones.

Growing Demand for Rail Services

The decision to open Jatake Station comes amid steadily increasing ridership on the Rangkasbitung line. According to KAI's data, the number of passengers has shown consistent growth: 43.3 million in 2022, 62.1 million in 2023, 70.0 million in 2024, and 70.5 million in the first eleven months of 2025. This trend underscores the growing demand for efficient transportation solutions in the region.

Improving Connectivity and Mobility

KAI's Director Utama, Bobby Rasyidin, emphasized that Jatake Station is designed to bring railway services closer to the community in this rapidly developing area. The station's presence is expected to enhance regional connectivity and support more organized and efficient daily mobility. Rasyidin highlighted that the station will cater to the growing population in the vicinity, providing them with a convenient and reliable transportation option.

Strategic Development

The development of Jatake Station is a testament to KAI's commitment to improving Indonesia's railway infrastructure. By finalizing the station's construction in collaboration with the Direktorat Jenderal Perkeretaapian (DJKA) Kemenhub, KAI is set to launch the station in early 2026. This project not only addresses the increasing demand for public transportation but also aligns with the broader goals of enhancing connectivity and supporting sustainable urban development in the Jakarta metropolitan area.
