        "summary": "A transport analyst has urged the Indonesian government to provide incentives to ensure a smooth transition towards the zero over-dimension overloading (ODOL) policy by 2027. The analyst highlighted that financial support is crucial for logistics companies to replace non-compliant fleets and to develop competitive multimodal transport systems. The policy is seen as a key moment to improve traffic safety and build a more efficient national logistics system.",
        "content": "<p>A transport analyst from the Strategic Transportation Initiative\n(Instran), Deddy Herlambang, has assessed that incentives are necessary\nto support the realisation of the zero over-dimension overloading (ODOL)\npolicy by 2027, while gradually improving the efficiency of the national\nlogistics system. According to Deddy, incentives can serve as a driver\nfor logistics businesses to transition towards the implementation of\nzero ODOL. \u201cThe zero ODOL policy has actually been under discussion for\nseveral years,\u201d Deddy said in a statement in Jakarta on Tuesday. He\nstated that the government needs to ensure the zero ODOL policy is\nsupported by measured steps so that the transition process can run\nsmoothly without disrupting the flow of goods distribution and national\nlogistics. The Instran Senior Researcher assessed that drafting a\nroadmap is an important part of ensuring all stakeholders have a unified\ndirection in preparing for the gradual and sustainable implementation of\nzero ODOL. The government previously stated it would provide solutions\nso that businesses can transition towards zero ODOL without disrupting\nlogistics activities across various regions of Indonesia. In addition to\nlaw enforcement, the government is also preparing incentives for\nlogistics companies to replace fleets that do not yet comply with\nregulations with vehicles that meet applicable safety standards. Deddy\nassessed that the provision of incentives needs to be adjusted to\ninfrastructure readiness so that the implemented policies can provide\noptimal benefits for businesses and support the smooth distribution of\nlogistics. According to him, the use of electric-based logistics\nvehicles still requires adequate infrastructure support because the\navailability of Public Electric Vehicle Charging Stations (SPKLU) is\nstill limited in various regions. He said this infrastructure limitation\nneeds attention so that the transition process towards more\nenvironmentally friendly vehicles can run effectively according to the\noperational needs of national logistics transport. Deddy also assessed\nthat the development of multimodal transport is a strategic option to\nreduce the dependency of logistics distribution on truck transport in\nsupporting the implementation of the zero ODOL policy. He explained that\na distribution pattern using ships and trains as the main transport,\nfollowed by trucks as feeders, is considered a more ideal model despite\nits high cost. \u201cIndeed, the most ideal is main logistics transport using\ntrains as a multimodal role model with ships, then transferring to\ntrains, and then trucks as feeders, but it is expensive due to double\nhandling,\u201d he explained. Therefore, according to Deddy, the government\nneeds to provide incentives or subsidies so that multimodal transport\ncosts become more competitive, encouraging more businesses to utilise\nit. \u201cTo cut the high costs, there is a role for the government to\nprovide subsidies for logistics feeder transport or subsidies for using\ntrain transport,\u201d he said. He assessed that such support could help\nreduce national logistics costs, which currently range between 14.2 per\ncent and 23 per cent of Indonesia\u2019s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Deddy\nemphasised that the zero ODOL policy not only aims to improve traffic\nsafety but also serves as a momentum to build a more efficient logistics\nsystem to support the national economy. Previously, Minister of\nTransportation Dudy Purwagandhi affirmed that the government\u2019s efforts\nto realise zero ODOL by 2027 are being carried out from upstream to\ndownstream through cross-sector collaboration, comprehensive\nsupervision, and technology-based law enforcement. \u201cHandling ODOL must\nbe done from upstream to downstream, starting from compliance with\nvehicle dimensions, the goods loading process, the responsibility of\ntransport companies and cargo owners, road supervision, to law\nenforcement,\u201d said the Minister. He made this statement during the\nlaunch of the Electronic Traffic Law Enforcement Hub (ETLE Hub) system\nas a modern and integrated system for the supervision and law\nenforcement of goods transport vehicles. Therefore, the Minister invited\nall stakeholders to strengthen collaboration to realise the target of\nzero ODOL vehicles by 2027.<\/p>",
