A joint venture (JV) led by Oriental Consultants Global Co Ltd (OC Global) has completed the girder connection of a four-span, continuous prestressed concrete box girder bridge for the Light Rail Transit (LRT) Jakarta Phase 1B (Velodrome to Manggarai) Project in Indonesia. A girder closure ceremony was held on 13 January 2026 to celebrate this milestone.

\n\n

The construction of this long-span bridge is regarded as one of the most challenging works on the project, for which the JV – comprising OC Global, PT Oriental Consultants Indonesia, PT Jaya CM and PT Dardela Yasa Guna – is responsible for construction supervision.

\n\n

Crossing an existing expressway, the bridge has span lengths of 75 m, 120 m, 120 m and 75 m. It was built using the balanced cantilever construction method. According to OC Global, the girder works were successfully completed without any accidents over a period of approximately five months, from the start of girder construction to final connection. With the completion of the girder connection, construction of ancillary structures, track works and railway system works will now begin.

\n\n

LRT Jakarta, which is operated by PT Jakarta Propertindo (Perseroda), commenced operations of Phase 1 in December 2019 on the section between Pegangsaan Dua Station and Velodrome Station. Phase 1B of the project is an extension of the existing line and covers the section between Velodrome Station and Manggarai Station, with a total length of approximately 6.4 km. The entire section is elevated and includes five stations. The JV is responsible for the preparation of bidding documents, bidding support services, and construction supervision for this section.

\n\n

In addition, within about a year after the commencement of on-site construction, OC Global successfully completed the construction of civil structures for one station section and conducted trial operations. In recognition of establishing the shortest record for the construction and trial operation of an elevated LRT railway in Indonesia, the company received an award from the Indonesian record certification authority.

\n\n

The project aims to help alleviate the traffic congestion in Indonesia’s capital city by connecting the northeastern and central areas via LRT, thus enhancing mobility for local residents and creating an environment-friendly transportation society.

Japanese engineering firm Oriental Consultants Global (OC Global) and its subsidiary, PT Oriental Consultants Indonesia (PT OC Indonesia), have signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with PT Mass Rapid Transit Jakarta (PT MRT Jakarta) to establish business cooperation in Jakarta, Indonesia.

\n\n

Under this MOU, the parties agreed to collaborate in the field of transit-oriented development (TOD), including transit hub development, mobility planning and management, logistics and smart city initiatives, by complementing each other’s expertise and experience to create new business opportunities.

\n\n

PT MRT Jakarta is a public enterprise operating the MRT system in Jakarta. The company has been designated as the master developer for TOD along the MRT lines.

\n\n

Since the 1980s, OC Global has been involved in numerous transportation network development projects in Greater Jakarta, beginning with the formulation of the region’s transportation masterplan. The company has also actively dispatched specialists in urban planning and development, including TOD, to support the urban planning and development initiatives in Jakarta.

\n\n

Building on this background, OC Global has signed several MOUs with PT MRT Jakarta since July 2022 for strategic collaboration in business development related to TOD in Jakarta, and in November 2024, co-hosted the TOD Investment Forum in Tokyo.

\n\n

With the latest MOU, the inclusion of PT OC Indonesia will further expand joint efforts to develop new business opportunities. In addition, the validity period of the MOU has been extended from three years in the previous agreement to five years this time, thereby further strengthening the trilateral collaboration among the three parties.
