Tosari BRT station began its operational on 15 January 2004, along with the soft operational launch of Transjakarta Corridor 1. [2] The commercial operation was started on 1 February 2004. Its original site is located adjacent with the UOB Plaza to the southwest and The City Tower to the southeast. The station was also referred as Tosari ICBC; however, the name ICBC (Industrial and Commercial Bank of China) was not a part of a naming right deal, but refers to The City Tower which become the branch office of ICBC.

On 6 January 2014, this station was expanded to accommodate passengers from the closed Bundaran HI BRT station due to the construction of the Jakarta MRT. [3] Tosari BRT station's access bridge was equipped with elevators for disabled and had access to the UOB Plaza. However, the east elevator near The City Tower broke up and abandoned. [4] On 14 December 2018, the bridge was closed for demolition and replaced by a pelican crossing at the north of the station. [4] [5]

The new building of Tosari station is located slightly to the north, adjacent with Menara BCA and Grand Indonesia. Its construction of has been seen since July 2019. The new building started operating on 1 November 2019. Since then, Tosari BRT station is splitted between the newly-built north building and the original south building, which ceased operating. It originally had a curved-shaped entrance that looks similar with the entrances of Bundaran HI MRT station, [6] [7] but was removed in October 2020 after being burned during a protest against a law bill. [8]

On 16 January 2020, Tosari BRT station began to serve as the temporary terminus of corridor 4 due to the construction of the Dukuh Atas LRT Station. [9] After the LRT construction completed, corridor 4 returned to its original terminus, Dukuh Atas 2 (now Galunggung) on 20 May 2023. [10]

On 15 April 2022, the north building was closed for revitalization along with 10 other BRT stations to be revitalized. [11] [12] The operational was temporarily moved to the original south building. Besides that, a shuttle bus route between the National Monument (Monas)–Semanggi (1ST) was provided until 11 September 2022. [13] As of 26 December 2022, the revitalized north building of Tosari BRT station has resumed its operations and serving boarding and alighting passengers. [14]

Building and layout

The current design of the north building of Tosari BRT station have two floors with an iconic neo-futuristic design which resembles a cruise ship like the Bundaran HI Astra station. Both stations have batik-inspired facade patterns and arc-shaped platforms. [14]

On the second floor there is an open deck that towards to skyscrapers at Jalan Jenderal Sudirman at the south side and the Selamat Datang Monument at the north. Unlike Bundaran HI Astra, Tosari does not have an extending viewing balcony towards the Selamat Datang Monument. Other facilities on the second floor are toilets, passenger waiting rooms, and commercial areas. [14] The entrance and platform area is on the first floor. There are 18 platform bays (9 for each direction).
