Efforts to improve the comfort aspects of KRL users as the most popular public transport in the JABODETABEK area need to be made to reduce congestion problems. Inconvenience due to passengers crowding each other in several carriages near the staircase access counter can increase the risk of crime, sexual harassment, and the difficulty of operators in conducting surveillance. To minimise the uneven passenger density between carriages, this research aims to create a passenger density information system for each carriage on the KRL so that passengers can be well distributed throughout the carriage. The research method is Design Research Methodology (DRM) through literature study of public transport performance assessment indicators, preparation of impact models, needs analysis, information system design, application design, prototype design, and information system testing. The findings are in the form of a passenger density information system for each carriage that can be accessed by passengers through LCD screens at stations and smart phone applications. Prototyping experiments resulted in an infrared sensor-based module through the use of microcontrollers that can be an applicable, adaptive, and affordable technology. Broad usefulness and long-term impact through increased comfort and operational income are the main targets of the research. This innovation is the right way and is expected to be implemented by the government in order to create transportation progress and can reduce the congestion index which is still high in the JABODETABEK area.
