TransJogja! The comfortable transportation system in Yogyakarta.

Like as TransJakarta, TransJogja is a bus rapid transport system, cheap and air-conditioned around Yogyakarta, Indonesia. TransJogja is one part of the application program Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) that proclaimed the Indonesian Department of Transportation. This system began operate in early March 2008 by the Indonesian Department of Transportation, especially the Provincial Government of Yogyakarta.

Systems that use a bus (medium size) is implementing a closed system, meaning passengers can not enter the bus without going through the shelter, as well as TransJakarta. In addition, the payment system implemented different: one-way tickets to students, and general tickets to subscribe. There are three types of tickets can be purchased by passengers, the fare one-way (single trip), and general tickets to subscribe.

General ticket to subscribe is different from regular bus ticket because they are used a smart card. A machine will review the smart card automatically and the door will opened automatically. Passengers can change buses without having to pay additional fees, if still in a shelter.

Now these busses become main option of transportation in Yogyakarta. Not only the cheap cost but also the good service that become the reason of the passengers. With this bus you will not find pickpockets that sometimes found in general busses around Yogyakarta.
