Transjakarta Corridor 12 is a bus rapid transit corridor in Jakarta, Indonesia, operated by Transjakarta. It connects the Pluit BRT station to the Tanjung Priok bus terminal. The streets that passed by Corridor 12 are along Pluit Putri/Putra, Pluit Timur, Pluit Selatan, Jembatan Tiga, Bandengan Selatan, Gedong Panjang, Kopi, Tiang Bendera 5, Roa Malaka Utara, Tiang Bendera, Kunir, Lada Dalam, Bank, Kali Besar Barat, Jembatan Batu, Mangga Dua, Gunung Sahari, Angkasa, HBR Motik, Danau Sunter Barat, Danau Sunter Utara, Mitra Sunter Boulevard, Danau Sunter Selatan Dalam, Yos Sudarso, and Enggano streets. This corridor is integrated with Jakarta Kota Station at the Kota BRT station, Kampung Bandan Station at Mangga Dua BRT station, and also the Tanjung Priuk railway station at the Tanjung Priok terminal.

At one time, this corridor used articulated buses, but because the route was very winding, especially in the Kota Tua area where the streets were narrow, it was quite difficult to navigate there, so the buses were changed to non-articulated buses.

Transjakarta launched a 35-minute express service between Pluit and Kota which is only available from 06:00 to 09:00 and was launched on May 8, 2023.[1]

History

Corridor 12 was inaugurated on February 14, 2013, by the Governor of Jakarta at the time, Joko Widodo with 36 new buses at the first day of the operational.[2] [3] [4]

In July 2015, this corridor was shortened, only limited from Penjaringan to Tanjung Priok, at that time the Pluit BRT station had not served Corridor 12. Then in August 2019, this corridor route was shortened again, so it only served the Penjaringan–Sunter Kelapa Gading route, since Pluit–Penjaringan segment was already served by Corridor 9 while Sunter Kelapa Gading–Tanjung Priok segment was already served by Corridor 10.[5] [6] As of December 18, 2021, Corridor 12 has returned to its original route, Pluit–Tanjung Priok. For now, the Penjaringan–Sunter Kelapa Gading route is only used as the axis route.[7]

On September 12, 2022, corridor 12 began to operate 24 hours a day, with its nighttime counterpart from 22:00-05:00 is branded as AMARI (Angkutan Malam Hari,) M12.[8] However, unlike other main corridors (except Corridor 13), Corridor 12's nighttime AMARI service, M12, remains only serving Penjaringan–Sunter Kelapa Gading route with some buses terminating at Sunter Boulevard Barat (listed as Penjaringan–Sunter Boulevard Barat), leaving the two segments cut solely served by M9 and M10 respectively.

On May 8, 2023, the Pluit–Kota express service on Corridor 12 was launched along with two other express services on Corridor 6 and 9. The express route was made to shorten passenger's travel time during peak hours. The express service operates from 06:00 to 09:00 and it only took around 35 minutes from Pluit to Kota BRT station.
