The free tour bus service was extended in response to the public's demand, Head of the Corporate Communications and CSR Department of PT TransJakarta Iwan Samariansyah stated.
"In three days, 17,524 customers have used this free tour bus service. This figure is predicted to continue to increase, especially on weekends," he noted here on Friday.
TransJakarta has deployed eight buses, with a maximum capacity of up to 80 passengers, according to Samariansyah.
The free tour bus also has a friendly design for people with disabilities, who use wheelchairs. "No passengers are allowed to stand, so they can feel safe and comfortable," he remarked.
