Blok M Terminal is a type-B bus terminal located within the commercial and entertainment quarter of Blok M in Kebayoran Baru, Jakarta, Indonesia. It only serves city transport buses that connects several regions in Jakarta and its surrounding cities. The terminal primarily serves Transjakarta's BRT corridors and feeder routes. Perum DAMRI also operates numbers of shuttle bus services from the Soekarno–Hatta International Airport and several gated communities in Greater Jakarta to Blok M terminal. Apart from DAMRI, Mayasari Bakti and Sinar Jaya also operates their bus routes to this terminal.
Due to the decrase of service quality, the Jakarta provincial government planned to revitalize Blok M terminal starting in 2024.[1] This will be the second revitalization of the terminal after the first one in 1992, which forms the current building of the terminal.[2]
Kebayoran Baru was originally built as the satellite city of Jakarta, prior to the city's major expansion, which have 17 blocks sorted from A to S. The first block (Blok A) was accidentally became a busy terminus point of public bus routes. In 1968, the then-Governor of Jakarta, Ali Sadikin proposed to built a permanent bus terminal on a 2.2ha land in Blok M. Since the opening, it became a new terminus for all bus services in Kebayoran Baru, which was in a form of an open-air bus terminal.
In December 1990, Governor Wiyogo Atmodarminto wanted to revitalize the terminal, by combining it with a shopping arcade (later known as Blok M Mall) on the basement level. The first revitalization cost about IDR 80 billion at the time. In September 1992, the revitalization was completed, and the terminal was reinaugurated on 3 October of the same year.
The Provincial Government of Jakarta and PT. Integrasi Transit Jakarta, subsidiary of the Jakarta MRT, are planning to revitalize Blok M terminal once again in 2024. The plan is a part of the government to redevelop Blok M as an integrated transit-oriented development zone, alongside the CSW-ASEAN TOD. The revitalization will create a direct connection from Blok M BCA MRT station and the adjacent Martha Christina Tiahahu Literacy Park into the terminal.
