Transjakarta Corridor 12 is a bus rapid transit corridor in Jakarta, Indonesia, operated by Transjakarta. It connects the Pluit BRT station to the Tanjung Priok Bus Terminal.
The route is spiral-shaped: From Tanjung Priok, buses go through Enggano, Yos Sudarso, Danau Sunter Selatan Dalam, Mitra Sunter Boulevard, Danau Sunter Utara, Danau Sunter Barat, HBR Motik, Angkasa, Gunung Sahari, and Mangga Dua Streets and serve 15 stations in both directions. From Mangga Dua Raya station, westbound buses travel through Pantura, Pintu Besar Utara, Kali Besar Barat, Kopi, Bandengan Selatan, Jembatan Tiga Raya, Pluit Putra, Pluit Indah, Pluit Barat Raya, and Pluit Permai Streets, stopping at 3 stations unidirectionally before terminating at Pluit station. Eastbound buses travel through Pluit Timur Raya, Pluit Selatan Raya, Gedong Panjang, Kopi, Roa Malaka Utara, Tiang Bendera, Kali Besar Barat, Kunir, Lada Dalam, and Pintu Besar Utara, stopping at 5 stations unidirectionally before closing the loop at Mangga Dua Raya station and continuing eastwards towards Tanjung Priok. It is one of the two main BRT corridors that are spiral-shaped, the other being Corridor 2.
This corridor is integrated with Jakarta Kota Station at the Kota BRT station, Kampung Bandan Station at Mangga Dua BRT station, and also the Tanjung Priuk railway station at the Tanjung Priok terminal.
The corridor's route had experienced shortening twice: first in 2015 as "Penjaringan â Tanjung Priok," and again in 2019 as "Penjaringan â Sunter Kelapa Gading." The route was reverted to Pluit â Tanjung Priok as of 2021; however, most buses to this day only serve the "Penjaringan â Sunter Kelapa Gading" axis route.
Transjakarta launched a 35-minute express service between Pluit and Kota which is only available from 06:00 to 09:00 and was launched on May 8, 2023.
Corridor 12 was inaugurated on February 14, 2013, by the Governor of Jakarta at the time, Joko Widodo with 36 new buses at the first day of the operational. Originally, this corridor used articulated buses, but because the route was very winding, especially in Kota Tua where the streets are narrow, it was quite difficult to navigate there, so the buses were changed to non-articulated buses.
In July 2015, this corridor was shortened, only limited from Penjaringan to Tanjung Priok, at that time the Pluit BRT station had not served Corridor 12. Then in August 2019, this corridor route was shortened again, so it only served the PenjaringanâÂÂSunter Kelapa Gading route, since PluitâÂÂPenjaringan segment was already served by Corridor 9 while Sunter Kelapa GadingâÂÂTanjung Priok segment was already served by Corridor 10. As of December 18, 2021, Corridor 12 has returned to its original route, PluitâÂÂTanjung Priok. For now, the PenjaringanâÂÂSunter Kelapa Gading route is only used as the axis route. However, most buses, to this day, still only serve this axis route with very few buses serving the full route.
On September 12, 2022, corridor 12 began to operate 24 hours a day, with its nighttime counterpart from 22:00-05:00 is branded as AMARI (Angkutan Malam Hari, ). However, unlike other main corridors (except Corridor 13), Corridor 12's AMARI service remains only serving PenjaringanâÂÂSunter Kelapa Gading route with some buses terminating at Sunter Boulevard Barat (listed as PenjaringanâÂÂSunter Boulevard Barat), leaving the two segments cut solely served by Corridors 9 and 10 respectively.
On May 8, 2023, the PluitâÂÂKota express service on Corridor 12 was launched along with two other express services on Corridor 6 and 9. The express route was made to shorten passenger's travel time during peak hours. The express service operates from 06:00 to 09:00 and it only took around 35 minutes from Pluit to Kota BRT station.
