So that it can continue to be one of the solutions and foundations to maintain positive economic growth to connect to each other in the region.

Herry said that the land acquisition cost required with the 2020-2024 Strategic Plan Target with 2,513 km of toll roads and 41 segments, the required cost was Rp. 96 trillion.

"With these costs, it is our duty to concentrate on how to find potential collaborations with stakeholders," said Herry, quoted on Sunday, June 26.

The development of PPPs on Toll Roads began before 2004, namely the risks that were generally taken by PT Jasa Marga (BUMN) and Private Business Entities,

Furthermore, in 2004 to 2012 the risk was transferred to Toll Road Business Entities (BUMN and Private Business Entities).

In 2012-2016 the risk is shared between the Government and Private Business Entities, land acquisition is the responsibility of the Government, revolving service funds and land capping funds, 2015 to date the Government guarantees through PT Penjamin Infrastruktur Indonesia, based on Law No. 2 of 2012, certainty in land acquisition, DTT and BUJT are paid through LMAN, risk sharing on projected income through the application of Present Value of Revenue (PVR) evaluation.

Herry explained that future infrastructure financing policies are to continue financing toll roads on main sections, improve the investment climate and encourage more sustainable financing schemes, one of which is through the Asset Recycling scheme.

Head of BPJT Danang Parikesit said, in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic situation, the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing continued to spur the construction of toll roads spread across Java, Sumatra and Kalimantan islands.

The toll road construction is still ongoing because it is part of the National Strategic Project (PSN).

This is in accordance with Presidential Regulation (Perpres) Number 56 of 2018 concerning the Second Amendment to Presidential Regulation 3 of 2016 concerning the Acceleration of PSN Implementation.

"During the Covid-19 pandemic that we went through together, it greatly affected the operational, financial and technical performance of toll roads. Traffic volume decreased in line with the policy of the Government by issuing mobility restrictions. In 2021, the Government will issue a stimulus policy for Toll Road Business Entities (BUJT) affected by Covid 19," said Danang.

Danang added, over time with the relaxation of mobility restrictions issued by the government, the volume of traffic on toll roads from time to time increases.

In contrast to logistics transportation with Government support, which continues to encourage logistics flows, it results in a stable traffic volume flow.

This is a capital to push the target of toll road development in the future.

Until the end of 2021, the length of the toll road will reach 2,457 Km, then until June 2022, the length of the toll road that has been operating is 2,500 Km.

"With the increase in the length of toll roads in several sections, there is a capacity ratio of 70 percent which requires widening. For example, in this year's Eid on the Jakarta-Cikampek Toll Road, the widening is expected to improve toll road services," said Danang.

"Regarding safety on toll roads, it is hoped that the accident factor in 2022 will decrease to 1.09 incidents per km (-32.7 percent), compared to the previous year in 2021 which was 1.62 incidents per km, and reduce the number of fatalities. due to accidents, it is targeted that in 2022 there will be a decrease of 0.143 deaths per km with a percentage reaching -6.53 percent compared to 2021, which is 0.153 deaths per km," he continued.

Furthermore, Danang revealed, for an investment target in 2021 of IDR 736.37 trillion (accumulated current prices), it is targeted that by the end of 2022 it can increase by IDR 970.85 trillion (accumulated current prices).

Then related to Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) where in 2021 it is Rp. 9.90 trillion, the amount will be fixed in 2020, in 2022 it is targeted to reach Rp. 20 trillion, international financing is also targeted to reach Rp. 4.30 trillion in 2022 compared to Rp. 3.89 in 2021. trillion.
