Bandengan Pekojan, Transit station on South Bandengan Road, Jakarta, Indonesia.
Bandengan Pekojan is a Transjakarta station featuring an elevated platform positioned in the middle of South Bandengan Road with dedicated bus lanes running on both sides. The central placement allows buses to stop efficiently while street traffic flows around the infrastructure.
The station opened on February 14, 2013, as part of Corridor 12, which connects western and eastern parts of Jakarta through a dedicated bus rapid transit route. This corridor expansion helped establish a major transportation link across the city.
The station name blends two neighborhood identities: Bandengan from the street and Pekojan from the Tambora district, each reflecting local geography and community boundaries. This naming choice shows how the transit hub mirrors the character of its surrounding area.
Passengers can access the station through entrances located along West Kali Besar Street and transfer to various non-BRT city bus routes operating in the area. The layout makes it easy to navigate between the Transjakarta system and other local transit options.
The station operates in only one direction toward Pluit, serving as a key point for commuters traveling along the northern corridor of the city. This one-way design reflects a practical solution adapted to the route's geography and traffic patterns.
