Location
Cibitung Station Location in Java

Previously the station was small, 1.5 × 1.5 meters wide and only functions as a ticket sales counter. The station platform is low and short.[3] The station building was then enlarged to meet the extension of the KRL Commuterline blue line towards Cikarang.[4]

The station is quite busy because it is located near housing complexes.

History

Local station

Before Cibitung Station was built there was a signal post on the location. Many residents of Pondok Tanah Mas housing need to stop and depart the train, because most of them work in Jakarta. Along with the of Pondok Tanah Mas residents interests, Wanasari locals also want the existence of a train station. Over time, Cibitung Station was built to fulfill their needs, not only for Pondok Tanah Mas residents themselves, but also other housings as well as Wanasari residents.[3]

Reopened as commuter station

Since the implementation of 2011 Gapeka (Grafik Perjalanan Kereta Api) timetables, all local trains, either from west or east, did not stop at Cibitung Station. The station closure left the old station building, which contains the station signboard and former ticket sales counter.

In 2015, the station was seen starting to be rebuilt. On 8 October 2017 it was officially reactivated with a new station building and serving the KRL Commuterline for the Jakarta Kota–Cikarang.[4][2] The new station building has only one platform in the middle of the two rail tracks.
