Simpang Kuningan (Transjakarta)

Simpang Kuningan is a Transjakarta bus rapid transit station at the Gatot Subroto street in Jakarta, Indonesia, serving Corridor 9. It is located east of the intersection between Gatot Subroto, Mampang Prapatan and Rasuna Said streets (hence the name 'Simpang,' Indonesian for 'intersection'). The station is located below the viaduct of the Jakarta Inner Ring Road.

History

The BRT station was originally named Kuningan Barat when it first opened alongside the entire Corridor 9 on 31 December 2010, as it is located in the borderline between Kuningan Barat and Kuningan Timur administrative villages (kelurahan) of Mampang Prapatan and Setiabudi districts respectively. On 17 March 2015, the south platform bays were extended due to the construction of an overpass for westbound traffic towards Grogol Petamburan, parallel with the Inner Ring Road viaduct.

Kuningan Barat BRT station was temporarily closed for revitalization on 4 September 2022, alonside Gatot Subroto LIPI (now ), Senen Sentral (now ) and SMK 57 (now Jati Barat). After that, the station was reopened on 15 February 2023. In late December 2023, the station was renamed to Simpang Kuningan.

Building and layout

Simpang Kuningan BRT station is one of the five stations of Corridor 9 to be located below the Jakarta Inner Ring Road viaduct. It is accessible via footbridge, and connected to the neighboring Underpass Kuningan station of Corridor 6. The station now has six squircle-shaped platform bays (three for each directions).
