Abstract: Next Level - Public Transport & Density Jakarta, with more than 10 million populations, has grown rapidly since 1970s. However, it the metropolitan area, Jabodetabek (consists of 14 municipalities) has more than 28 million population sprawling into the area of 6,000km2. The main problem of Jakarta metropolitan area is the lack of public infrastructure, one of them is public transport. Jakarta doesn’t have adequate public transport and mass rapid transport. The Governor, inaugurated in October 2012, restarted two most important transport infrastructure projects, Jakarta MRT and Jakarta Monorail (private investment). These new infrastructures will provide development opportunity to Jakarta’s future. These are the basic infrastructure that should have been built 30 years ago as the city now is in dire need of proper transportation infrastructure. The paper will discuss the opportunities and challenges, as the result of the investment in infrastructure. The private investor is aiming to benefit from air rights development from the monorail station that will serve Jakarta’s CBD, connecting the city from east to west. The new typology of real estate is also expected to enrich Jakarta’s skyline. The progress of the infrastructure project will also be discussed as the Jakarta government is also investing on elevated bus rapid transit infrastructure.
