By car
The southern border of Bandung is defined by the Padaleunyi toll road, with five exits, from west to east Pasir Koja (KM 132), Kopo (KM 135), Mohammed Toha (KM 139), Buah Batu (KM 142), and Gedebage (KM 149). The exit numbers signify the distance from the western terminus of the toll road in East Jakarta. A second main east-west road in South Bandung is Jalan Soekarno-Hatta, running parallel to the toll road, a few kilometres to the north. This road also provides an easy connection between the airport in Northwest Bandung and South Bandung.By bus
The main public transport hub of South Bandung is . The terminal is served by long-distance buses with destinations to the west of Bandung, including Bogor Raya, Greater Jakarta, and Banten. In addition, there are several city bus and angkot (public minivan) routes from and to the terminal, including DAMRI-operated bus route 9 that runs to the other main bus terminal, Cicaheum, in East Bandung (which serves long-distance buses to and from destinations to the east), bus route 2 to Ledeng terminal in Northwest Bandung, and bus route 5 to Dipatiukur in North Bandung (in front of the Padjadjaran University campus).Angkots follow a fixed route (there are various routes throughout the city), but there is no fixed schedule and there are no fixed stops. To get on, simply raise your hand. To get off, shout "Kiri!" to the driver, so he will pull over on the left (Indonesian: kiri) side of the road. The price of an angkot ride within the city is usually about Rp2,000 to 5,000. It is best to ask a local which angkot route to take, and how to recognise the location you want to get off. There are, among others, angkot routes from Leuwi Panjang terminal to Cimahi and Soreang (both 24 hours per day).
Other key bus and angkot stops in South Bandung include (also known as Abdul Muis) and . Also most other major roads in the area are served by one or more angkot routes.
By train
There are five operational railway stations along the northern edge of South Bandung. From west to east, these are , , , (abbreviated Kircon), and . Each of these stations is served by a few daily local trains to Bandung's main railway station, as well as suburbs such as Cimahi. Kiaracondong station in addition serves a range of economy-class long-distance trains to and from Jakarta and Central and East Java. For travelling by public transport within the city, it is usually easier and faster to use buses and angkot (public minivans). For long-distance business and executive class trains, you will need to travel from Bandung's main railway station in Central Bandung.See
