Transjakarta Corridor 5 is a bus rapid transit corridor in Jakarta, Indonesia, operated by Transjakarta. The corridor connects Ancol Dreamland in North Jakarta with the Kampung Melayu Bus Terminal in Jatinegara, East Jakarta.
The route goes through Gunung Sahari, Pasar Senen, Kramat Raya, Salemba Raya, Matraman Raya, Jatinegara Barat, and Jatinegara Timur Streets. The stretch between Pademangan and Jatinegara BRT stations runs parallel to the Cikarang Loop Line of the KRL Commuterline, with two BRT stations, Matraman and Bali Mester, being directly linked to the Matraman and Jatinegara railway stations.

Perspective
Inauguration
Trial runs for Corridors 4, 5, 6, and 7 were conducted in December 2006. All four corridors were inaugurated on 27 January 2007 by the then Governor of Jakarta, Sutiyoso.[1][2][3]
BRT station revitalization
On 15 April 2022, Transjakarta temporarily closed the Matraman Baru station to undergo revitalisation works, along with ten other stations across Corridors 1, 2, 9, and 11.[4][5] The revitalisation was carried out to integrate Corridor 5 with the newly-opened Matraman railway station that serves the KRL Commuterline.[6] It was soon followed by the closure of the Senen Sentral and Pasar Jatinegara (now known as Bali Mester) BRT stations on 4 and 6 September 2022, respectively.[7][8][9] The revitalised Matraman Baru BRT station reopened on 22 December 2022.[10] The new Pasar Jatinegara BRT station, renamed Bali Mester, reopened on 15 February 2023[11], followed by the Senen Sentral station on 31 May 2023.[12]
On 7 January 2023, the Kampung Melayu BRT station, located near the Kampung Melayu Bus Terminal was also temporarily closed for revitalisation works. The station serves as the terminus for Corridors 5, 7, and 11, as well as several non-BRT services. Due to the closure, Corridor 5 temporarily terminated at Bali Mester BRT station, Corridor 7 at Bidara Cina station, and Corridor 11 at Matraman Baru station, while all non-BRT services continued normal operations[13][14]. On the first day of the closure, many passengers were unaware that the Kampung Melayu BRT station was temporarily closed.[15] The station reopened on 19 July 2023, with all affected routes resuming normal service.[16]

Route 5C (Cililitan – Juanda)

However, with the construction of Phase 2A of the Jakarta MRT, it no longer serves Harmoni BRT station and instead goes through Monumen Nasional BRT station, terminating at Juanda BRT station since 4 March 2023. This temporary route change will continue until the MRT construction is completed, which is expected in either 2027 or 2029.
