Incidents

[edit]

On May 30, 2024, a crane iron beam from construction project of the new building of the Attorney General's Office of Indonesia (Kejaksaan Agung RI) fell onto the tracks.[3][4] The incident prompted the temporary suspension of services along the entire line to allow for the safe evacuation of the beam and to assess the condition of the tracks and signaling systems. Fortunately, no human casualties were reported.
