SOLO - The Solo-Yogyakarta Toll Road is ready to be opened again functionally to support smooth homecoming and backflow during the 2024 Eid holiday.

President Director of Jasamarga Jogja Solo (JMJ) Rudy Hardiansyah said the 22 km toll road for the Kartasura-Klaten section will be temporarily opened on April 5-15, 2024 starting at 06.00-17.00 WIB, and only for four-wheeled vehicles class 1 or nonbuses.

This restriction was carried out because the Solo-Yogya toll road is still under construction.

During the Eid holiday later, the Solo-Yogya Toll Road will only function in one direction. In the period from April 5-11 to Solo to Yogya. Then, on April 12-15 for Yogyakarta to Solo.

There are two access to the toll road without tariffs. First, from the Trans Java toll road, you can enter directly to the Colomadu GT and exit at the Ngawen GT and go to the Yogya-Solo national road to Klaten and Yogyakarta.

Second, access for vehicles from Jalan Raya Solo-Semarang can enter through GT Banyudono and exit at GT Karanganom or GT Ngawen.

Furthermore, in the reverse flow period on April 12-15, vehicles bound for Solo, Boyolali, Kartasura can enter through GT Karanganom or Ngawen and exit at GT Colomadu or GT Banyudono.

According to Rudy, the travel time through the Solo-Yogya functional toll road from Kartasura to Klaten can be shortened by 25 minutes compared to passing the Yogya-Solo national road which takes about 50 minutes.

He estimates that there will be up to 12,000 vehicles passing through the Solo-Yogya functional toll road in a day. He added that portable toilets are available at KM13.

The Solo-Yogyakarta Toll Road to Yogyakarta International Airport in Kulonprogo as a whole has a length of 96.57 km, consisting of three sections: Section 1 Solo "Purwomartani" Klaten (42.3 km), Section 2 Purwomartani "Monjali" Sleman (16 km), and Section 3 Gamping Kulonprogo (38.57 km).

The Ministry of Transportation previously predicted that the peak of the 2024 Eid homecoming flow would be D-2 or Monday, April 8, 2024, with a potential movement of 26.6 million people. Meanwhile, the estimated peak of backflow is D+3, namely Sunday, April 14, 2024, with a potential movement of 41 million people.
