Hutama Karya: Completion Of Construction Of Shipbetung And Bocimi Toll Roads Starting In 2024
JAKARTA - PT Hutama Karya (Persero), as a state-owned enterprise, revealed that the completion of the Kayu Agung - Palembang Betung (Kapalbetung) construction on the Trans Sumatra Toll Road and the Bogor - Ciawi - Sukabumi (Bocimi) Segment Cibadak -West Sukabumi can start next year.
Hutama Karya President Director Budi Harto said that the two toll roads actually belonged to Waskita Karya, but because Waskita Karya is currently carrying out financial restructuring, the 2024 State Capital Participation (PMN) was given to Hutama Karya, and was used to help complete the Betung Ship Toll Road on the Trans Sumatra Toll Road and the Bocimi Segment Cibadak - West Sukabumi Toll Road.
"The PMN will be disbursed next year, so it is hoped that the completion of the construction of the two toll roads will begin in 2024," said Budi Harto at the DPR RI Complex, Jakarta, Tuesday, September 19.
Hutama Karya was allocated by the Ministry of SOEs to obtain PMN in 2024 amounting to IDR 18.6 trillion which was used for the construction of the Phase 1 Trans Sumatra Toll Road (JTTS) and the completion of the National Strategic Project (PSN) of the Shipbetung Toll Road and the Bocimi Toll Road.
For information, the construction of the Kapalbetung Toll Road is divided into three sections, namely Section I Kayu Agung Jakabaring along 33.5 km which has been operating since April 2020.
Then Section II of Jakabaring Musi Landas along 33.9 km was carried out in 2 Sections, namely Section 2A of the 9 km Jakabaring - Kramasan section operated in January 2020 and Section 2B of the Kramasan Musi take off 24.5 km in the construction stage.

The Kayu Agung - Palembang Betung toll road is part of the main corridor (backbone) of the Trans Sumatra Toll Road to increase connectivity between cities/regions on the southern part of Sumatra Island.
This toll road will integrate regional connectivity, smoothing the flow of distribution of goods from industrial centers in the Palembang - Jambi corridor.
This toll road is also connected to national roads in Sumatra, so it is hoped that it can support regional development, especially in South Sumatra.
