On 4 September 2022, the station was closed together with Gatot Subroto LIPI, SMK 57, and Kuningan Barat for revitalization and TransJakarta began to operate the 3ST (Atrium–Budi Utomo) temporary shuttle route to accommodate affected passengers.[1] The process took eight months and the station was reopened to the public on 31 May 2023.[2][3]
