History

This station was formerly named Sarinah because it is located at the front of Sarinah Building. The operational began on 15 January 2004, along with the soft launching of corridor 1.

In 2014, the BRT station building was extended to enlarge its capacity, due to the increase of passenger density. [2]

A major revitalization of this station was conducted on 15 April 2022, along with 10 other stations on different corridors, [3] [4] in order to improve services at this station and making it as one of TransJakarta's iconic station. To accommodate passengers who were affected by the revitalization, TransJakarta operates a temporary shutte route between the Semanggi Interchange and the National Monument until 11 September 2022.

The station was reopened with its new name "M.H. Thamrin" on 4 March 2023, along with Dukuh Atas 1, Juanda, and Jatipadang BRT stations. [5] [6]

Building and layout

The new building of the station has two floors with a touch of cultural heritage. This can be seen from its minimalist architecture that similar to the Sarinah Building. The station is overall painted in beige with wood panels in some parts. There is also an escalator at the entrance to access the second floor.

This station was only accessible via pedestrian bridge which was equipped with elevators for disabled people access, but it was malfunctioned and abandoned for a long time. [7] In 2018, a ramp access from the zebra cross at the Sarinah interchange on the north side of the station was opened to replace the abandoned elevators on the pedestrian bridge. [8]

During the revitalization of the station, the roof, fence, and stairs of the bridge were removed and the bridge cannot be used anymore. [9] The bridge is now replaced with zebra crossing at the Sarinah interchange. It is planned that the bridge will be renovated to connect the station with the Sarinah Building.
