Taman Sari (formerly Olimo) is a Transjakarta bus rapid transit station located in Mangga Besar, Taman Sari, West Jakarta, Indonesia. serving Corridor 1. It is one of the few stations of Corridor 1 that has not been revitalised or rebuilt since its opening.
Taman Sari station was closed on 31 October 2023 for light renovation works. It reopened on 14 March 2024. [1]
Taman Sari was originally named Olimo, named after N.V. Olimo (later PT. Olimo), an automobile goods company catering imported accessories, spare parts, lubricants, body paints and varnishes during the Dutch colonial period. Olimo was founded in 1914 and has branch offices in Bandung, Surabaya, and Medan. Its former headquarters, demolished in the 1990s, was located in what now is the intersection between Hayam Wuruk street and Mangga Dua street. Olimo has become a popular name to refer the region surrounding the BRT station. [2]
In late December 2023, Olimo BRT station was renamed to Taman Sari, named after the district ( kecamatan ) of the same name where this station is located, alongside 108 other stations across Jakarta. It was a part of Transjakarta's "neutralization" of station names from third-party names (e.g. corporates not from a naming right deal, government institutions, or figures) that would allow those stations to grant an official naming right.

On 26 January 2020, a female Transjakarta passenger was attacked by an unknown assailant while descending the pedestrian bridge stairs after exiting the then-named Olimo BRT station. As a result, the victim was rushed to the hospital with a deep and long cut to the back of her head. [4]
On 1 April 2024, the main road near the Taman Sari station collapsed, narrowing the lane to the point where no more than one car could pass at a time. The damage halted Transjakarta services from Harmoni to the Glodok BRT station and required diversions. [5] The Jakarta MRT denied that the damage was caused by the MRT Phase 2 construction project, which was actually due to a utility relocation project by another company that was responsible. [6]
