KAI Commuter implemented service adjustments on the Rangkasbitung Line due to crowds gathering near railway tracks in the Palmerah-Tanah Abang area. Services from Tanah Abang toward Parung Panjang and Rangkasbitung experienced delays, route diversions, and limited speeds, with some trains restricted to traveling only as far as Palmerah Station. While passenger numbers for the Jabodetabek KRL Commuter Line dropped by 15.7 percent compared to the previous week, KAI Commuter maintained 1,065 scheduled trips.
