JAKARTA - PT Semen Indonesia (Persero) Tbk (SIG) contributed to the construction of the Padang 'Sicincin Toll Road in Padang Pariaman Regency, West Sumatra, which is part of the Padang' Pekanbaru Toll Road (JTTS) section. The toll road, which stretches 36.6 km, is the first toll road in West Sumatra Province to cross 5 sub-districts and 15 villages in Padang Pariaman Regency. As of March 2025, GIS has supplied 88 thousand tons of building materials for the construction of the Padang Sicincin Toll Road.
The Padang 'Sicincin Toll Road is a strategic infrastructure project that not only increases connectivity between regions in West Sumatra, but also encourages local economic growth. The presence of this toll road is able to cut the travel time between Padang and Sicincin to only 30 minutes from the previous approximately 1.5 hours through national roads.
SIG's Corporate Secretary, Vita Mahreyni, said that GIS as the largest building material company in Indonesia is also proud to be able to contribute to the construction of the Padang-Sicincin Toll Road which not only helps accelerate connectivity between West Sumatra and Riau Provinces, but also supports the smooth distribution of goods and services, accelerates community mobility, and opens new access to local and tourism production centers.
"The Padang 'Sicincin Toll Road can be a catalyst for new investments in the logistics, trade and tourism sectors, thereby strengthening regional competitiveness and improving the welfare of the people of West Sumatra in a sustainable manner. The contribution of GIS in this project is a testament to the high trust of stakeholders in the quality of GIS products," said Vita Mahreyni, in a written statement, quoted Thursday, May 22.
As part of the National Strategic Project (PSN), the Padang 'Sicincin Toll Road is one of the government's priority projects because it is included in the latest amendments to PSN regulations, namely Presidential Regulation Number 42 of 2024 concerning the Acceleration of Toll Road Development in Sumatra.

To ensure the strength and reliability of Padang-Sicincin Toll Road construction in the long term, GIS through its subsidiary, PT Semen Padang, supplies UltraPro cement which has many advantages: easy to apply, optimal dry time, stronger bending, and final results with maximum strength. UltraPro is in good agreement with the construction needs of toll roads, dams, airplane runways, and other building structures that require strong initial and final pressure.
Furthermore, Vita Mahreyni emphasized that GIS, with the support of the largest production and distribution facilities in Indonesia, is ready to support development throughout Indonesia.
"We guarantee the smooth supply of building materials to ensure the success of project implementation with maintained quality and quantity of products," concluded Vita Mahreyni.
