JAKARTA - The Ministry of PUPR has opened its voice regarding the progress of the Gilimanuk- Mengwi Toll Road construction.

Head of the Toll Road Regulatory Agency (BPJT) of the Ministry of PUPR, Danang Parikesit, said that currently the construction of the toll road is still waiting for financing support from banks or financial close.

"I think, when we talk about the progress of the construction, right, someone must pay for planning financing. So, we will wait for the financial closure," Danang told reporters at the DPR RI Building, Jakarta, Tuesday, March 28.

Danang said that the Gilimanuk-Menginwi Toll Road project had been signed by the Toll Road Concession Agreement (PPJT) on March 8, 2022.

However, until now, we are still waiting for land acquisition for the construction of the toll road.

"They, right, are now focusing on between Mengwi and Pekutatan, section 2 and 3, yes, that is their focus on being acquired (land), including land for regional companies," he said.

The Gilimanuk- Mengwi Toll Road project is planned to consist of three sections. The first section is the Gilimanuk-Pekutat segment, the second section of Pekutatan-Soka, and the last section is Soka-Menwi.

For your information, this project has been groundbreaking on September 10, 2022.

Later, this toll road will pass through three districts, 13 sub-districts, and 58 villages with construction costs estimated at IDR 24 trillion.
