JAKARTA - Minister of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR) Basuki Hadimuljono said his party encouraged the Indonesian Toll Road Association (ATI) to provide toll tariff discounts during the Lebaran homecoming period.

"I've been pushing, AtI, the Toll Association, so that they (donate), now they are counting," said Basuki at the Jakarta Presidential Palace complex, Wednesday, after holding a limited meeting with President Joko Widodo, quoted from Antara, Wednesday, April 5.

Basuki said that until now the government did not know whether there was a discount on toll rates. According to Basuki, the ministry cannot take the initiative to reduce toll rates because it will distort investment.

"Oh, it's not allowed (the ministry to take the initiative to lower toll rates), it's an investment, so it distorts investment, he said so. So I'll just have to wait, go for a ride," he said.

The Ministry of PUPR itself has so far prepared various infrastructure supporting Eid homecoming, one of which is the Cisamdawu Toll Road, which according to Basuki, will function as a homecoming route.

"Yes, from PU, the addition that might be very helpful for the first is Cisumdawu, hopefully it can penetrate from Cileunyi to Dawuan with more than 90 kilometers," said Basuki.

The Cisumdawu toll road is projected to be used as a homecoming route on April 15, 2023 for free because it has not been inaugurated.
