IV.3.c. Mixed <strong>System</strong>s and Transfers Between Corridors<br />

Because of incompatibilities between existing ticketing system in Corridor I and possible<br />

future ticketing system in Corridor II and III, Transjakarta proposed to operate the second<br />

and third corridors without fare integration with BlockM-Kota corridor, <strong>for</strong>cing<br />

passengers to pay again when transferring onto Corridor I.<br />

With a flat fare, this configuration loses 25% of the demand in relation with scenario with<br />

integration. In the following table, it has been considered that corridor 1 stays flat fare,<br />

and corridors 2 & 3 operate with distance based fare.<br />

This scenario is absolutely not recommended. The main loss of ridership and revenue<br />

results from <strong>for</strong>cing passengers to pay <strong>for</strong> transfers between corridors. If this separate<br />

fare structure is selected, the adverse impact on revenue is minimized with a minimum<br />

fare of Rp1000 with Rp50 per kilometers in Corridor II and III.<br />

IV.4. Projected Demand on the Jakarta Monorail and Integration w/<br />

<strong>TransJakarta</strong><br />

As part of the <strong>Institute</strong> <strong>for</strong> Transportation and Development Policy’s (<strong>ITDP</strong>’s) technical<br />

assistance to DKI Jakarta <strong>for</strong> <strong>TransJakarta</strong>, we developed in cooperation with the<br />

University of Indonesia Center <strong>for</strong> Transportation Studies (UI CTS) a traffic model to<br />

predict likely ridership on new <strong>TransJakarta</strong> lines. The <strong>TransJakarta</strong>-related outputs of<br />

that model will be released by June 30, 2005 in a separate report.<br />

However, the same traffic model is usable to generate projected demand figures <strong>for</strong> the<br />

proposed Jakarta monorail project. We wanted to bring to your attention the results of<br />

modeling the current monorail scenario <strong>for</strong> Jakarta. As the DKI Jakarta Government may<br />

be asked to provide ridership guarantees or other <strong>for</strong>ms of guarantees that will be<br />

sensitive to projected demand, we thought that these modeling results may be of use to<br />

you in your negotiations with the private monorail companies.<br />

Using the most optimistic scenario, at a fare of Rp.5000, demand on the two currently<br />

planned Blue and Green monorail lines, the total demand <strong>for</strong> both lines will be only<br />

31,980 daily passengers. The Blue Line alone would carry only 20,111 daily passengers.<br />
