Manggarai Station (MRI) is a train station in Manggarai, Tebet, South Jakarta. It serves primarily as a commuter station for the Jabodetabek area, and is operated by KA Commuter Jabodetabek. Bukit Duri depot is located in south.

History

Construction of the station in 1910s, it was then located in Meester Cornelis, (Dutch East Indies)

Manggarai Station opened on 1 May 1918 even though construction was not fully finished — World War I in Europe delayed the delivery of certain parts of its roof. Its tracks branched to Meester Cornelis (Jatinegara) and continued to Bandung and also to Tanah Abang. The construction was supervised by Van Grendt. The first class waiting room has not changed since the 1910s. The station replaced the second Meester Cornelis Station, which was located a few hundred meters to the south.^[1]

Facilities and Development

A daily commuter line passing the Manggarai station.

Manggarai Station is not just a station, it is also as a parking place for intercity trains before the trains go to Gambir Station or Jakarta Kota Station for their departure. The station is the proposed terminus of the Soekarno-Hatta Airport Rail Link express and commuter train service.

At present the station is undergoing development with a three-level station. It is planned that there will be ten railways lanes on the lower floors, which will be used by Jakarta metro rail. Meanwhile, long-distance trains will use the elevated railways. After completion, Manggarai prepared to be the largest transit station, not only for metro rail, but also the starting point for departure of long-distance trains and Soekarno-Hatta Airport Trains. There will be a housing and commercial complex, and a 5 star hotel also sorruonding the station.^[2]
