Location

Bali Mester is a Transjakarta bus rapid transit station located on Jatinegara Timur Street, Bali Mester, Jatinegara, East Jakarta, Indonesia, serving southbound Corridor 5 buses. The station is connected to Stasiun Jatinegara station that serves Corridor 11 to allow transfer to eastbound Corridor 11 buses without having to go to Kampung Melayu station. The station is named after the subdistrict it is located in.

History

The station opened as Pasar Jatinegara with the rest of Corridor 5 on 27 January 2007. ^[1] Prior to revitalisation works, the station had a small building with 3 gates on the eastern side. The skybridge design was complex as it was located at the junction where Jatinegara Timur and Bekasi Barat Streets intersect. The skybridge to exit to both sides of the Matraman Raya Street was located on the eastern side, while the other skybridge was used as a transfer linkway to Corridor 11.

On 6 September 2022, the station was closed for revitalisation works. It reopened on 15 February 2023. ^{[2] [3]} In late December 2023, it was renamed to Bali Mester. ^[4]

Building and layout

After revitalisation works, the new station is bigger and has an open-air design. Due to the limited space, there is only a toilet without a prayer room, although passengers may use the prayer room at the Corridor 11 station (which also got revitalised). The transfer linkway was rebuilt and only reopened months after the station reopened.
