The GBK station prior to revitalization. It was expanded in 2018 to accommodate spectators of the 18th Asian Games at that year

Gelora Bung Karno BRT station was inaugurated along with the soft operational launch of Transjakarta Corridor 1 on 15 January 2004. Associated Press recorded on their covarge archive that this station was one of the most busiest and crowded station on the first day of operational, [1] because the inauguration of corridor 1 was held at this station. This station, along with all stations at corridor 1—and the BRT corridor itself—began its commercial operational on 1 February 2004.[ citation needed ]

The station originally had a small building with two platform bays (one for each direction), which was enlarged at late July 2018 to accommodate spectators of the 2018 Asian Games, using materials from former Al-Azhar BRT station. [2] [3] Platform bays were increased to 6 (three for each direction), with the building being extended to the southwest. The original extension part uniquely retained a tree, by creating an empty narrow space for the its growth. [3]

In late 2018, two pedestrian bridges, which became the access to Gelora Bung Karno and Bundaran Senayan stations, were temporarily closed to be revitalized, [4] replaced with a temporary pelican crossing. [5] [6] The revitalization of the pedestrian bridge access to the Gelora Bung Karno BRT station was inaugurated on 28 February 2019 with a new artistic design. [7] [8]

On 15 April 2022, the revitalization of the Gelora Bung Karno BRT station began with 10 other stations, including Dukuh Atas 1, Tosari, Juanda, Cikoko Stasiun Cawang, Sarinah (now renamed M.H. Thamrin), Kebon Pala (now renamed Matraman Baru), Kwitang, Balai Kota, Bundaran HI, and Stasiun Jatinegara 2 BRT stations. [9] [10] As an alternative, a shuttle bus route from the National Monument to the Semanggi Interchange (1ST) was prepared to accommodate passengers during the revitalization process, which operates in corridor 1 (until 11 September 2022 [11] ).

The Gelora Bung Karno BRT station was reopened on 17 August 2022, coinciding with the 77th Independence Day of the Republic of Indonesia. [12] [13] The building was reextended again, and the original tree within was chopped down. The second extension area includes two acacia trees, which are retained and covered by transparent mica slab. The platform bays were increased to 12 (6 for each direction), and the station now includes toilets and a prayer room (musala).
