In welcoming New Year's Eve 2024, Light Rail Transit (LRT) South Sumatra has an appealing plan to provide more services to the community. The plan is to extend its operating hours on New Year's Eve, operating until midnight. This step was taken as part of an effort to provide people celebrating the New Year with safe and comfortable transportation options.

Extending Operating Hours to Midnight

Until now, South Sumatra LRT has provided 94 scheduled trips per day, from 05.06 to 20.43. However, to celebrate New Year's Eve, the South Sumatra LRT will operate until midnight on December 31, 2023. This step is expected to provide easy access to transportation for people celebrating New Year's Eve in various locations throughout the city.

13 Stations Ready to Serve

On New Year's Eve, 13 stations will remain open, including DJKA, Jakabaring, Polresta, Ampera, Cinde, Dishub, Bumsri, Demang, Gapo, RSUD, Punti Kayu, Asrama Haji, and Airport. The South Sumatra LRT, with its extensive station network, is expected to be an ideal transportation option for people who want to celebrate the turn of the year in various locations along the LRT line.

Alternative Transportation that is both safe and comfortable

South Sumatra LRT seeks to provide safe, comfortable, and efficient transportation alternatives for the people of Palembang and its surroundings by extending operating hours. This step also meets the mobility needs of people who want to spend New Year's Eve without worrying about transportation.

Service Improvement Towards the New Year

South Sumatra LRT management is committed to continuously improving community services. The addition of New Year's Eve operating hours is one of the strategic steps taken to support community mobility and make a positive contribution to travel comfort, particularly at special times such as the turn of the year. The public is expected to make good use of this service to spend New Year's Eve safely and comfortably.
