Stasiun Karangantu (KRA)

Karangantu station (KRA), designated as a Class III station, is situated at an elevation of +4 meters in Banten's capital city of Serang and operates under the jurisdiction of Kereta Api Indonesia Daerah Operasi I Jakarta. Historically significant, the station is situated near the ancient port of Banten Lama, serving as a vital historical gateway that once facilitated trade and transportation during the Banten Sultanate era and the subsequent Dutch colonial period. Architecturally, it retains elements of vintage Indies-style railway design characterized by practical colonial-era structural features that reflect the region's rich maritime and trading history.

The station features a straightforward track layout comprising two tracks with a simple side platform configuration to manage local passenger movements efficiently. Within the national railway transit network, Karangantu plays a vital role in connecting coastal Banten communities to major urban centers like Merak and Jakarta, supporting regional mobility and local economic integration. Despite its modest classification, it remains an essential logistical link for commuters and regional travelers navigating the westernmost corridor of the island's railway system.
