KCIC Tambah 62 Perjalanan Whoosh Mulai 1 Februari
SEAToday.com, Jakarta - PT Kereta Cepat Indonesia China (KCIC) akan menambah perjalanan reguler kereta cepat Whoosh dari sebelumnya 48 perjalanan per hari menjadi 62 perjalanan per hari mulai 1 Februari 2025.
Langkah ini dilakukan seiring dengan pertumbuhan jumlah penumpang Whoosh yang terus meningkat.
“Penambahan jadwal perjalanan ini merupakan bentuk komitmen KCIC dalam memberikan layanan transportasi cepat yang aman, nyaman, dan fleksibel bagi masyarakat,” ujar General Manager Coporate Secretary KCIC Eva Chairunisa.
Menurutnya, penambahan jadwal tersebut menunjukkan bahwa kereta cepat Whoosh telah diminati masyarakat dari waktu ke waktu.
“Hingga saat ini, Whoosh telah melayani lebih dari 7,5 juta penumpang sejak dioperasikan secara komersial di Oktober 2023,” kata Eva.
Meski terdapat penambahan jumlah perjalanan tersebut, perawatan sarana tetap akan dilakukan secara maksimal oleh petugas profesional di Depo Tegalluar untuk memastikan bahwa layanan Whoosh tetap dapat berjalan dengan baik dan aman.
“Pengoperasian juga dipantau secara terpusat di Operation Control Center Depo Tegalluar sehingga pergerakan setiap Whoosh dapat berjalan dengan aman dan lancar,” tuturnya.
Dari sisi kesiapan sarana, KCIC menyiapkan lima rangkaian Whoosh yang dalam kondisi siap operasi untuk mengakomodir 62 perjalanan Whoosh setiap harinya.
Selain itu, pihaknya juga menyiapkan satu rangkaian yang akan disiagakan untuk mengakomodir kondisi darurat dan siap beroperasi sewaktu-waktu jika dibutuhkan.
“Kami berharap penambahan ini dapat semakin mempermudah masyarakat dalam memanfaatkan layanan Whoosh, sekaligus menjawab kebutuhan transportasi cepat di tengah pertumbuhan jumlah penumpang yang terus meningkat,” pungkasnya.
