Kwitang is a Transjakarta bus rapid transit station located between Kwitang Raya and Prajurit KKO Usman dan Harun streets in Senen district, Jakarta, Indonesia. The station serves eastbound corridor 2 buses, one way towards Pulo Gadung. It is also located south of the Museum of National Awakening. Despite its name, this station is not precisely located in Kwitang administrative village (kelurahan), but it is located at the borderline between Kwitang and its neighboring village, Senen, in the north.

History

Kwitang BRT station was opened along with the inauguration of corridor 2 on 15 January 2006. The original building had a small size, with one platform bay only, and it only facing north (Prajurit KKO Usman dan Harun street). Because of its small size, articulated buses were unable to serve the station.

On 6 June 2021, Kwitang BRT station was closed and demolished for a revitalization.^[1] However, the reconstruction wasn't started until 15 April 2022,^[2] simultaneously with 10 other stations on different corridors, including Juanda and Balai Kota.^[3]^[4] On 11 August 2022, Kwitang BRT station was reopened to the public, and the station now is able to serve both eastbound and westbound buses.^[5]

Building and layout

The new building faces both north and south sides, so the station can serve westbound buses, such as corridors 5C (PGC–Juanda) and 7F (Kampung Rambutan–Juanda (via Cempaka Putih)) on the south platform. The station now has 6 platform bays (3 on each direction), with automatic platform screen doors.

The uniqueness of the station can be seen from a retained samanea saman or trembesi tree inside it. The surrounding area of the tree is sterilized, by providing a wide open area with unconcreted soil area, allowing the tree to grow without interruptions.
