The INDOBUS project is a stand-alone technical component of the SUTRI NAMA project, which is financed by the State Secretariat of Economic Affairs of Switzerland (SECO). INDOBUS' primary aim is to assist selected Indonesian cities in developing bus rapid transit (BRT) corridors as a backbone for sustainable urban mobility systems, through a mix of technical and investment assistance. At national level, INDOBUS supports the Ministry of Transportation in establishing the necessary regulatory framework and policies for BRT systems in Indonesian cities as well as coordinating efforts of all other line ministries to effect substantial progress e.g., through initiating high-level policy dialogues. At local level INDOBUS assists selected pilot cities namely Bandung, Semarang, Makassar, Pekanbaru, Batam and Surabaya in selecting BRT corridors and designing (concept design phase) associated infrastructure, as well as supporting the establishment of state-of-the-art BRT management and operations systems, including human capacity development by means of on-the-job training/close collaboration with project experts as well as selected training activities.
GOPA Infra supports the successful implementation of the INDOBUS project in the fields of sustainable urban transport, urban transport financing, bus rapid transit implementation and measuring, reporting and verifying (MRV) GHG emissions in the field of transport. Capacity building is a significant element of GOPA Infra’s work.
In this context the project has addressed the following tasks:
- Task 1: Capacity building on operationalisation (Institutional development, financing), integration and associated technologies/opportunities (intelligent transport systems; e-mobility) of BRT systems in the partner cities

- Task 2: Preliminary mission/surveying for feasibility study in Surabaya

- Task 3: Feasibility study for Surabaya
