Ahead Of Eid 2023, All Cibitung-Cilincing Toll Roads Are Ready To Fully Operate

JAKARTA - Construction of the Section 4 Cibitung-Cilincing Toll Road (JTCC) connecting Tarumajaya-Cilincing along 7.4 Km has been connected to JORR and the Cilincing arterial road. Thus, the entire 34.7 km toll road is ready to operate functionally to support homecoming flow and goods ahead of Eid 2023.

"The function-worthy test has been completed by the PUPR Ministry Team, Land Transportation, and Korlantas Polri two weeks ago and in April, JTCC is ready to operate functionally as part of a road network that supports access to transportation, especially facing the flow of Eid homecoming," said President Director of PT Pelindo Solusi Logistics or SPSL Joko Noerhudha in Jakarta, on Wednesday, March 30.

Joko said that JTCC Section 4 will operate functionally without tariffs or free of charge, which is a form of company support for smooth vehicle traffic during the flow of homecoming and goods that have the potential to increase ahead of Eid al-Fitr 2023 on toll roads.

Thus, it is hoped that the implementation of homecoming can run smoothly, comfortably, and safely, both for the community and the mobility of goods.

"JTCC, which is one of the National Strategic Projects, will facilitate logistical access from Tanjung Priok Port to industrial areas in East Jakarta and vice versa, so that it can connect better with the hinterland and industrial estates in eastern Jakarta," he said.

This, he continued, is expected to reduce the travel time of transportation vehicles, help reduce national logistics costs, and have an impact on multiplier effect in the form of increasing national competitiveness.

"This is one of the company's efforts to create value creation and financial upgrades," Joko explained.

For your information, the operation of JTCC along 34.7 Km is part of the construction of the Toll Road in Indonesia, which currently has reached 2,620.01 Km with 70 toll roads and is managed by 49 Toll Road Business Entities (BUJT).

The Cibitung-Cilincing Toll Road section was built and operated by PT Cibitung Tanjung Priok Port Tollways (PT CTP), which is owned by PT Access Pelabuhan Indonesia and PT Menara Maritime Indonesia. Both companies are subsidiaries of PT Pelindo Solusi Logistik (SPSL).

JTCC Section 1 has been operating since July 31, 2021, Section 2 and Section 3 have also been operating since the toll road was inaugurated by President Joko Widodo in September 2022.

Later, if the four JTCC Sections have been fully operational, the number of daily traffic (LHR) is estimated to reach 30-35 thousand vehicles.
