Salemba Carolus, Bus station in Salemba district, Jakarta, Indonesia.
Salemba Carolus is a Transjakarta bus stop on Jalan Salemba Raya in Paseban, Senen, Central Jakarta, on Corridor 5. It began with three platforms on each side and was later extended north with six more; today only the three front platforms from the Kampung Melayu/Cililitan direction are used. An escalator links it to St. Carolus Hospital.
Salemba Carolus opened on 10 September 2008, built after Corridor 5 was already running, together with the Gunung Sahari stop. It was initially built with three platforms on each side, then extended north with six more platforms as passenger numbers rose. The stop is named after the St. Carolus Hospital to its east.
The station sits near medical centers and universities, serving as a daily meeting point for healthcare staff, students, and academics who move through the area regularly. The location has naturally become woven into the routines of these communities.
