This milestone strengthens MRTJ's vision of smart, sustainable and connected urban mobility in Jakarta. The project marks an important milestone in MRT Jakarta's ongoing efforts to enhance customer experience through more seamless, integrated, and digitally enabled mobility services.
Under this contract, Hitachi Rail takes the role of system integrator and solution provider for the next-generation Automatic Fare Collection (AFC) System, delivering seamless, interoperable, and commuter-friendly travel experience for MRT Jakarta network. The upgraded system will enhance the MRT Jakarta's transit infrastructure, improving operational efficiency and offering flexible payment options to passengers.
The project scope covers the design, supply, installation, testing and commissioning of an end-to-end account-based ticketing solution for seven new stations along MRT Jakarta's North-South Line Phase 2, as well as the development of system interfaces and AFC software for thirteen existing stations from Phase 1. The new system will also integrate with external payment systems, including major payment gateways and JakLingko (Jakarta's integrated public transport platform).
Signed in June 2026, the agreement marks a key step toward realizing MRT Jakarta's vision of a more seamless and cashless commuter experience through the enhanced AFC system.
Financed by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), with OCG-JPCN serving as MRTJ's consultant, the MRT Jakarta Phase 2A Project is a critical component of the city's smart mobility roadmap, supporting greater accessibility, sustainability, and efficiency in one of Southeast Asia's fastest‑growing metropolitan regions.
"This another significant AFC project won by Hitachi Rail in Jakarta, further demonstrates our presence and commitment to the Indonesian transport market. We are committed to supporting MRT Jakarta in advancing its vision for a smarter, more connected, and future‑ready urban mobility network. This innovative AFC system will not only enhance the passenger experience but also lay the foundation for a fully integrated Mobility‑as‑a‑Service ecosystem across the city." – Yves Baumgartner, VP LoB Revenue Collections Systems, Hitachi Rail.
