Join us as we revisit the Jakarta-Bandung High-Speed Railway (HSR) project, now officially operational as "Whoosh," Indonesia’s transformative rail link! This video explores the journey from planning to completion, revealing the impact of this cutting-edge high-speed rail on Indonesia’s mobility and infrastructure.
🚄 Highlights:
• Discover the scope and engineering feats of this 142 km line that connects Jakarta to Bandung, reducing travel time from over 3 hours to just 40 minutes.
• Learn how China's Belt and Road Initiative and unique financing models shaped this $7.3 billion project, now the most expensive BRI rail project.
• Dive into the complexities of constructing one of the world’s longest viaducts and the innovative safety systems used to support train speeds up to 350 km/h.
• Uncover the environmental, social, and logistical challenges that KCIC overcame to make this high-speed line a reality.
• Get the latest on the Whoosh’s performance, which has served over 5 million passengers within the first 11 months.
The Jakarta-Bandung HSR marks a new chapter for Southeast Asian rail, connecting major cities faster than ever before and pushing Indonesia into the ranks of countries with high-speed rail systems.
