The Bali Urban Subway is set to transform transportation, reduce congestion, and boost tourism. Fully backed by private investors, this project is a first for Indonesia and promises to generate thousands of jobs for the local community.​

The project called Bali Urban Rail and Associated Facilities was initiated by Bali Provincial Government through PT Sarana Bali Dwipa Jaya (SBDJ). The construction of Bali Urban Rail will be conducted in four stages.

The first stage will cover the Airport-Kuta Central Park-Seminyak-Berawa-Cemagi route. The second stage will connect the Airport-Jimbaran-Unud-Nusa Dua route. The third stage will extend from Kuta Central Park to Sesetan, Renon, and Sanur. The fourth stage will link Renon, Sukawati, and Ubud.

The Airport-Kuta and Airport-Jimbaran-Unud-Nusa Dua phases are scheduled for completion in early 2028, with all of phases one and two set to be finished by 2031. The total investment for these first two phases amounts to US$10.8 billion (Rp175.7 trillion). Meanwhile, the overall cost for all four construction phases is projected to reach US$20 billion (around Rp234.4 trillion).

PT Sarana Bali Dwipa Jaya (SBDJ) President Director Ari Askhara stated that the Bali Urban Rail project was seeking a strategic partner and a lead consortium of investors to actively participate in the project's development. Following a selection process, SBDJ has appointed PT Bumi Indah Prima (BIP) as the qualified partner and lead consortium of investors.
