Bundaran HI Station (or Bundaran HI Bank DKI Station, with Bank DKI granted for naming rights)[2] is a rapid transit station on the North-South Line of the Jakarta MRT in Central Jakarta, Jakarta, Indonesia. Located nearby the Hotel Indonesia (HI) Roundabout (Indonesian: Bundaran Hotel Indonesia (HI)), it is currently the terminus of the North-South Line, as the phase 2 construction of the line is underway. The station is located in the Gondangdia area of Menteng, Central Jakarta and is built underneath Jalan M.H. Thamrin. Jakarta MRT users can continue their journey with Transjakarta's Corridor 1 service from this station via the Bundaran HI bus stop located above. This connection with Transjakarta is in the form of stairs so it is not disabled friendly.[3] The station only has two railroad tracks equipped with a Buffer stop and a Railroad switch on the south side. The switch is used to move MRT trains that were originally on the left track to the right, or vice versa.

History

[edit]

The station opened on 24 March 2019 (2019-03-24),[1] along with the rest of Phase 1 of the Jakarta MRT. The station is connected with stairs to the Bundaran HI ASTRA TransJakarta stop but there is no direct connection that is accessible for people with disabilities.[4]
