Train is a friendly transportation mode for people with disabilities.

Train network in Jakarta that interconnect trasportation around Bogor, Bekasi, Depok, Tangerng, Cikarang called Commuter Line network.

Hundred trips is schedulled around this cities and able to move more than a million passengers per day.

This network is connecting hospital, university, market and many places to go.

The price is affordable and count base on distance.

Passenger with disabilities are comfort to use this transportation modebecause they have some facilities that make them easy to travel.

Wheel chair.

Elevated way for wheelchair to Train platform.

Special bench to sit while waiting the train. Has big signage.

Every commuter station have several chairs or bench that can be used to travel from enterance to the platform, the staff on duty will happily to help.

Yellow Tactile Paving/Tile.

Yellow Tactile Paving /Tile is escorting people with vision disabilities from enterance , vending machine to by ticket or ticket booth with staff in charge to give ticketing service to somebody need a change, tapping machin and go along the way to train platform.

Stretcher :

Every Commuter station prepare stretcher in case emergency situation.

Security on duty is can be seen everywhere and as long as my experience they will come and handy to help passenger who need help.

Unfortunately this comfortable transportation mode will be shut down due to Pembatasan Sosial Berskala besar (PSBB - Large scale Social Restriction).

Hope soon will be back as usual.

A hundred percent agree with you @Nyainurjanah .

Now, Tactile paving is not in the area of train station, some pedestrian in Jakarta are equipped with this.

Hope this facilities will be spread all over Indonesia and people with disabilities can travelling by them self confidently.

It’s so good to know that the commuter line in Jabodetabek and Cikarang is accessibility friendly, Pak @BudiFXW

Thanks for sharing this nice post, so that our fellow Local Guides will know and realize this great fact.
