Astra Amblas Shares Such As Cipali KM 122 Toll Road

JAKARTA - PT Astra International Tbk shares collapsed at the close of trading today, Tuesday 9 February. The price of the issuer coded ASII shares fell 4.51 percent to a level of IDR 5,825 per share at the close of trading.

In fact, at the opening of trading today, Astra's shares were at the level of 6,100. Even the shares of this automotive giant had touched the level of 6,200.

What is interesting is that Astra's shares weakened after the Cikopo-Palimanan (Cipali) KM 122 toll road from Cirebon to Jakarta collapsed and could not be passed by vehicles. Astra through its subsidiary, PT Lintas Marga Sedaya (LMS) or ASTRA Tol Cipali, is the operator of the Cipali Toll Road.

ASTRA Tol Cipali itself will immediately build an emergency lane at a collapsed road point, to reduce vehicle loads.

"To reduce the traffic load, an emergency lane will be built in the median," said Director of Operations for the ASTRA Tol Cipali Agung Prasetyo, as quoted by Antara.

Agung said the construction of the emergency lane is estimated to take up to three days, because it requires road compaction.

"The construction of this emergency lane is estimated for the next three days," he said.

He said at KM 122 + 400 from Cirebon to Jakarta there was road damage so that vehicles could not pass through the route.

Agung continued the high and continuous rainfall conditions, making the road conditions have to be done with maintenance work, especially on the KM 122 section towards Jakarta.
