LRT station

Halim LRT Station is a large class-A type light rail station located in Jalan Halim Perdana Kusuma, Kebon Pala, Makasar, East Jakarta. The station, which is located at an elevation of +28.546 meters, only serves the Bekasi Line of the Jabodebek LRT. The station is located on the south side of the complex.

In addition to Jabodebek LRT services, there are also plans to extend the Jakarta LRT Line 1 to this station.[6] The Jakarta LRT station is planned to be in a separate building, namely to the north of Halim HSR Station.[7]

Unlike other Jabodebek LRT stations, there is no paid area connecting the two side platforms, so passengers have to tap out first before changing direction, although passengers can ask the staff to cross between.
