The Rangkasbitung Line (also known as KRL Commuterline Tanah Abang–Rangkasbitung), officially the Rangkasbitung Commuter Line, is a commuter rail line in Indonesia, operated by PT Kereta Commuter Indonesia (KCI). The line connects Tanah Abang station in Central Jakarta and Rangkasbitung station in Lebak Regency, Banten. On maps and diagrams, the line is shown using the color "green" . Tanah Abang–Rangkasbitung line is the longest and fourth busiest line in the KRL Commuterline system.[1]

History

The line is part of Tanah Abang–Rangkasbitung line, built by the Dutch Public Works Bureau (Burgerlijke Openbare Werken/BOW, now Ministry of Public Works) by decree of the Governor General as stipulated in the State Gazette (Staatsblad) No. 180 dated July 15, 1896. BOW constructed Batavia ZuidDuri line with branches to Tangerang and Rangkasbitung–Anyer Kidul. The line between Tanah Abang and Rangkasbitung was formally opened on 1 October 1899.

The track between Tanah Abang and Serpong was electrified in 1991 and completed in 1992.[2] In 2009, railway track between Serpong and Parungpanjang has been fully electrified.[3] Tanah Abang–Parungpanjang was the original route of Green Line when it began operation in 2011. Green Line was extended to Maja in 2013.[4] Further extension to Rangkasbitung is operational by 1 April 2017.[5] And the future extension to Serang and Merak in 2021 and elongation platform for 12 cars formation in this 2020.

On 2021 Timetable which took effect in February 2021, all trains starting/ending at Maja station were moved to Tigaraksa station, due to more tracks available at Tigaraksa for idle trains.[6]
