At first, this station was a small railway stop, but eventually it was closed. This station was reopened on 16 September 2009 by Jusman Syafii Djamal as Minister of Transportation of the Republic of Indonesia at that time. The operation of this station is carried out in order to increase the occupancy of KRL Commuterline passengers on the Tanah AbangParungpanjang route. This is because previously the distance between KRL stations was quite far, so it was necessary to have a station that could be accessed by local residents.[4]

Jurangmangu is one of two stations serving the Bintaro Jaya housing area, along with Pondok Ranji, located about 2 kilometers northeast. It is also located near the Bintaro XChange mall. To access this station, passengers pass under the Ulujami–Serpong Toll Road (from the direction of Bintaro Jaya Xchange Mall (Bintaro Xchange)) or via Cenderawasih Street. When walking towards the station, there is a park located in a valley near this station.[5]
