The Directorate General of Public Works and Housing Infrastructure Financing is currently preparing an auction for the 50 km Trans Papua non-toll road project", he said.

As for the segment of the Trans Papua non-toll road project from Mamberamo to Elelim.

Previously, the Ministry of PUPR held a Market Sounding or market interest assessment for the construction project of the Trans-Papua Road for the Jayapura-Wamena Segment of the Mamberamo-Elelim Segment in Papua through the Government Cooperation with Business Entity (PPP) scheme.

The Director of Implementation of Road and Bridge Infrastructure Financing of the PUPR Ministry, Reni Ahiantini, said that this road construction project has an investment value of IDR 3.526 trillion and a concession period of 15 years.

As part of the non-toll road which is the regional backbone of Papua, the existence of the Trans-Papua Road, the Jayapura-Wamena segment, and the Mamberamo-Elelim segment will improve the economy and increase the availability of the road network in Papua.

The construction of the Trans-Papua Road will support the production and processing centers of Indonesia's 237 natural resources, where national energy reserves are generated.

Through the PPP scheme, the provision of infrastructure services can be carried out without being completely dependent on the availability of the government budget, thereby accelerating infrastructure development in Indonesia.

In addition, the government can provide various facilities and conveniences, including partial construction financing, feasibility support, and guarantees for PPP projects.
