These new facilities are intended to significantly ease public access for attending football matches and other activities at JIS. The governor described the dual inauguration as a "gift for Jakarta," highlighting its significance for the city's celebration.

The construction of the JIS station aims to support the growing mobility needs in North Jakarta, an area experiencing continuous development in residential, business, and international sports destinations. The pedestrian bridge is also seen as a crucial step in enhancing connectivity between Ancol and JIS, addressing previous public complaints about accessibility to the stadium.

If that can be done, that will be the gift for Jakarta.
