Citeras Station (CTR) is a class III railway station located in Mekarsari, Rangkasbitung, Lebak Regency. The station, which is located at an altitude of +48 meters, is included in the Jakarta Operational Area I and only serves the KRL Commuterline route. Although it is named Citeras, this station is not located in Citeras Village, but is located to the east of the village itself.

Before KCJ extended the Green Line to Rangkasbitung, this station only served crossing and overtaking between trains for some time. In order to improve commuter rail services in the Lebak Regency area, PT KAI Commuter Jabodetabek then extended the KRL Commuterline route to Rangkasbitung Station. The old Citeras Station underwent a series of renovations to support the operation of the KRL Commuterline.[3] Eventually, the KRL can run to Rangkasbitung starting 1 April 2017.[4]
