In March 2022, the construction of a pedestrian skywalk in Kebayoran Lama, South Jakarta was started in order to create a transit point that connects Corridor 8 at the Kebayoran BRT station with Corridor 13 at Velbak BRT station and the Kebayoran railway station which serves the Rangkasbitung Line of the KRL Commuterline.{{Cite web |date=2022-06-20 |title=Dinas Bina Marga Bangun Dua Skywalk di Kebayoran Lama dan Lebak Bulus |url=https://republika.co.id/share/rdri55484 |access-date=2023-06-22 |website=Republika Online |language=id}}{{Cite web |last=Azzahra |first=Tiara Aliya |date=2023-01-03 |title=Skywalk Kebayoran Lama Rampung Dibangun, Kapan Dioperasikan? |url=https://news.detik.com/berita/d-6495992/skywalk-kebayoran-lama-rampung-dibangun-kapan-dioperasikan |access-date=2023-01-27 |website=detiknews |language=id-ID}}{{Cite AV media|title=Skywalk Kebayoran Rampung dan Siap Beroperasi |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXlH6HjlWIc |publisher=Lensa Indonesia - RTV |language=id |access-date=2023-01-27|via=YouTube}} To support the skywalk construction, Kebayoran BRT station was closed on 5 September 2022 for revitalization and Transjakarta users were diverted to use Bungur and Simprug stations during the closure.{{Cite web |date=2022-09-01 |editor-last=Huda |editor-first=Larissa |title=Halte Transjakarta Manggarai, PGC1, Jembatan Gantung, dan Kebayoran Lama Ditutup Sementara, Simak Alternatifnya |url=https://megapolitan.kompas.com/read/2022/09/01/21513501/halte-transjakarta-manggarai-pgc1-jembatan-gantung-dan-kebayoran-lama |access-date=2023-01-02 |website=KOMPAS.com |language=id}} The Kebayoran Lama skywalk underwent a public trial on 21–24 January 2023,{{Cite web |last=Hikmatiar |first=Tazkia Royyan |date=2023-01-21 |editor-last=Pradewo |editor-first=Bintang |title=Skywalk Kebayoran Lama Mulai Diuji Coba Hari ini, Cek Jadwalnya |url=https://www.jawapos.com/jabodetabek/21/01/2023/skywalk-kebayoran-lama-mulai-diuji-coba-hari-ini-cek-jadwalnya/ |access-date=2023-01-27 |website=JawaPos.com |language=id}} and inaugurated by the Acting Governor of Jakarta, Heru Budi Hartono on 27 January 2023,{{Cite news |last=Tanjung |first=Sufiani |date=27 January 2023 |title=Peresmian Skywalk Terpanjang di Jakarta |url=https://youtube.com/watch?v=edIRMvGL8hk |access-date=2023-01-28 |work=CNN Indonesia|via=YouTube}}{{Cite web |last=@dishubdkijakarta |title=Penjabat (Pj) Gubernur DKI Jakarta, Bapak Heru Budi Hartono meresmikan Skywalk Kebayoran di Jakarta Selatan, Jumat (27/01/2023).

Starting on 4 March 2023, as the impact of the construction of Jakarta MRT North–South Line extension to Kota Tua Jakarta, Transjakarta temporarily extends Corridor 8 to the Pasar Baru BRT station, due to its terminus, Harmoni being moved to a temporary building that can only serves Corridor 1 passengers. It took over Pecenongan, Juanda, and Pasar Baru stations from Corridor 3. At the same time, the route was modified to follow Route 8A (Grogol Reformasi–Juanda via Tomang), so the main route stopped serving Roxy and Grogol stations, instead taking over Petojo, Tarakan, Tomang, and Grogol Reformasi (towards Pasar Baru only) stations from Route 8A. {{Cite web |last=Sari |first=Brigitta Belia Permata |date=2023-03-03 |title=Mulai Besok, Ini Penyesuaian Rute TransJ Imbas Relokasi Halte Harmoni |url=https://news.detik.com/berita/d-6598515/mulai-besok-ini-penyesuaian-rute-transj-imbas-relokasi-halte-harmoni |access-date=2023-03-03 |website=detiknews |language=id-ID}}{{Cite web |last=@pt_transjakarta |author-link=TransJakarta |date=2023-03-03 |title=Sahabat TiJe, Transjakarta mengucapkan terima kasih atas pengertian para pelanggan akan penyesuaian rute dari konstruksi MRT Jakarta Fase 2A CP 202. Dan mohon maaf atas ketidaknyamanan ini. |url=https://www.instagram.com/p/CpUjIAgSEXm/ |access-date=2023-03-03 |website=Instagram |language=en}} This main route of Corridor 8 is officially listed as "Lebak Bulus–Pasar Baru via Tomang" and operates all day at a headway of 5-10 minutes. To respond to passenger complaints in regards to traffic jam in Tomang during rush hour, Transjakarta also operates an alternative "Lebak Bulus–Pasar Baru via Cideng" route which mimics the original Corridor 8 by interlining with Corridor 3 from Petojo to Damai instead of going through Tomang, thus stopping at Grogol and Roxy, and runs at a headway of up to 50 minutes off-peak or 5-10 minutes at peak. Route 8A still currently runs as a shortened main Corridor 8 (via Tomang) during Car Free Day (CFD) in Petojo area on Sunday mornings.

• As the impact of the Jakarta MRT construction, Transjakarta temporarily extends the main Corridor 8 to the Pasar Baru BRT station, taking over Pecenongan, Juanda, and Pasar Baru stations from Corridor 3 that currently terminates at Monumen Nasional, by merging the previously all-day-available Route 20x20px (previously Grogol Reformasi–Juanda via Tomang) with the main corridor, starting from 4 March 2023, until the MRT construction completed in 2027 or 2029. As the result, Petojo, Tarakan, and Tomang stations which were previously exclusively served by Route 20x20px without any main corridor service are now served by main Corridor 8. Route 20x20px is still available as a shortened main corridor during Car Free Day (CFD) in Petojo area on Sunday mornings, but now terminates at Jelambar and Pasar Baru. All routes currently do not stop at Harmoni.
• Currently, all stations are served by buses 24 hours a day.{{Cite web |last=Wibawana |first=Widhia Arum |date=2023-12-28 |title=Info Layanan Bus Amari TransJakarta: Daftar Koridor, Rute, Jadwal |url=https://news.detik.com/berita/d-7113315/info-layanan-bus-amari-transjakarta-daftar-koridor-rute-jadwal |access-date=2024-01-01 |website=detiknews |language=id-ID}}

• This route runs at a headway of 5-10 minutes all day.

• This route runs at a headway of 5-10 minutes at peak hours and up to 50 minutes off-peak.
