JAKARTA - PT Jasa Marga (Persero) Tbk carries out periodic reconstruction work on the Jakarta-Cikampek Toll Road in order to improve the safety and comfort of road users as well as the company's efforts to improve minimum service standards.

Operation and Maintenance Department Head Representative Office 1 Jasamarga Transjawa Tollroad Regional Division (JTTRD) Nouval M Rizky in Bekasi, Saturday, said there are two points of road reconstruction that will begin work on Saturday, June 4.

The first point of the rigid pavement reconstruction work is at Kilometer (KM) 35+955 to KM 36+185 lane 1 in the direction of Cikampek with a handling length of 182 meters.

"Work at this point will start today at 10.00 western Indonesia time until Friday, June 10 at 15.00 western Indonesia time," he said as quoted by ANTARA.

Meanwhile, the second point of rigid pavement reconstruction work is at KM 26+491.75 to KM 26+341.75 outer shoulder and lane 1 lane towards Jakarta with a handling length of 150 meters starting Monday, June 6, 10:00 western Indonesia time until Sunday, June 16, at 06.00 western Indonesia time.

"There will be no closures due to this work. The Jakarta-Cikampek Toll Road to Jakarta and Cikampek are still operating normally," he said.

Jasa Marga has prepared risk mitigation, including diverting the affected traffic flow before the work area, narrowing the work area, preparing counter-trafficking schemes in case of heavy vehicle traffic conditions, and coordinating with related parties.

Jasa Marga also disseminates the work plan by installing outdoor media in the form of job warning banners and Variable Message Signs in both directions of the Jakarta-Cikampek Toll Road to ensure this information is well received by road users.

He apologized for the inconvenience caused by the work in question, while also urging road users to anticipate the trip by ensuring the vehicle is in top condition, has sufficient electronic money balance, and refuels before starting the trip.

"Always comply with health protocols and travel requirements according to government regulations and be careful and obey signs, especially around work sites," said Nouval.

Road users can also access information about Jasa Marga Group toll road traffic through the 24-hour One Call Center at 14080 and the Travoy 3.0 application for iOS and Android users.
