The cheapest way to get around in Tangerang is, as in the other major Indonesian cities, by shuttle van (angkot). 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, simply 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 Rp4,000 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.

The easiest way to get around in Tangerang is by taxi. Taxi ranks are available outside the shopping malls and hotels. The main reputable taxi companies of Jakarta, including Blue Bird and Express, also have a branch in Tangerang. Premium taxis like Silverbird will offer you with better comfort and safety, but price is around 50% more expensive than regular taxis.
