JAKARTA - Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta Ahmad Risa Patria is reviewing the plan to increase vehicle parking rates in the capital city. The plan, parking rates will increase to Rp60 thousand per hour.
"It will be delivered at a later time. It is still in the process of drafting, it is still being studied," said Riza at DKI City Hall, Central Jakarta, Tuesday, June 22.
Riza sees, like it or not, parking rates will continue to increase over time. This is in line with the increase in income.
"Parking rates continue to increase worldwide in line with income and ability," he said.
In addition, the increase in motor vehicle parking rates also aims to reduce the use of private vehicles. If parking rates are high, people will switch to using public transportation.
"One of them we are trying to get people to move to public transportation. Reducing congestion is not only one source, not only through parking, but there are also many others. But it is very related, integrated with each other," he explained.
Separately, the Head of the DKI Transportation Agency, Syafrin Liputo, admitted that his party was implementing a trial of increasing parking rates as a study.
