Meanwhile, the Cisumdawu Toll Road consists of 6 Sections built under the Government and Business Entity Cooperation (PPP) scheme. Of the six Sections, Sections 1 and 2 were carried out by the government as part of the Viability Gap Fund (VGF) to increase the feasibility of the toll road investment.
Meanwhile, Section 3-Seksi 6 was carried out by the PT CKJT Toll Road Business Entity.
