Transportation around Jakarta Today

As my title above "Transportation around Jakarta Today"

This is it :

The Transjakarta bus is now getting better and easy to find (No more long waiting) and the price still IDR 3500. You can just buy card from this choosen bank : BCA, Mandiri, BNI, DKI, BRI, this card is reloadable #you can reload this in the bank itself or minimarket like indomart and alfamart# I use BCA and Mandiri card because their atm is easier to find. And u also can use this card for Train (Comuter line- we will talk about this later). You can check the balance in your card with application in your phone, lately i know xiaomi 5 pro can do this and my iphone 5s can't.

For me, The transjakarta is really helping. Cheap and have a quite complete route around jakarta.

Like sudirman area, Blok M, Old city, Gajah Mada, ITC mangga dua, Ancol & Dufan, Gunung Sahari, Kelapa Gading, Tanjung priok, and even Kalideres where you can find bus to Carita and Anyer beach or to cities in Sumatera island.

This is the route :

Also they have feeder to someplaces that free of additional charge.

I dont really know which one is free and which one we have to pay, you can ask the staff on duty in the bus shelter. What I know they have bus to PIK, Bogor, Cikarang, Citra Indah, Karawaci, Poris Plawad, etc.

Commuter Line, this is Jakarta, Bogor, Bekasi, Tangerang Train service. This is also very convinient, except in rush hour yaaaa :D with this train we will not stuck in traffic jam. The fare also very cheap, I go from stasiun pesing to Bogor only cost IDR 6000.

This is the route :

We can use the same card with the transjakarta one. If with the transjakarta we only tap the card when we're getting in, for this commuter line, we will tap our card twice. In and Out. Like MRT in singapore :)

I am proud of our commuter line.

Other than that 2 mass transportation, we can also use GOJEK, GRAB, and UBER for going faster.

They have mobile apps, we can order there with exact price without being fooled by the locals.

You can choose motorcycle or car there, and you can even ordering food with them. If you choose motorcycle, they will provide helmet for your safety. The car fare is cheaper than our taxi.

This apps, you can use credit in apps or cash.

Aside of them, there r still many ways to go around this city. And because there is to many, I dunno their price and route, then I'm not writing about them.

We have Kopaja, Kopami, Metromini, KWK, Angkot, Bemo (No need to bargain, there is fixed price and fixed route)

Bajaj, Becak, Ojek motor, Ojek Sepeda (Need to bargain and custom route).

This is their faces :)
