        "summary": "The Indonesian government will implement approximately 30 percent toll fare discounts across 29 toll road sections during the 2026 Eid al-Fitr holiday period, with the main discount periods running from 15\u201316 March (homebound) and 26\u201327 March (return flow). The policy aims to reduce congestion during peak travel days by incentivising travellers to depart and return earlier than projected peak periods, whilst encouraging greater use of toll roads over national roads.",
        "content": "<p>\u201cIn general, the toll fare discount will be implemented for four\ndays, from March 15\u201316, 2026 (homebound flow) and March 26\u201327, 2026\n(return flow),\u201d Hanggodo said in a statement issued on Monday.<\/p>\n<p>He said the discount will generally amount to around 30 percent for\nall vehicle categories. The reduction will apply to long-distance travel\n(barrier gate to barrier gate) using electronic payment methods. The\ndiscount will not apply if the electronic toll balance is insufficient\nor if the system fails to detect the vehicle\u2019s origin or\nclassification.<\/p>\n<p>The four-day discount period \u2014 March 15\u201316 (homebound) and March\n26\u201327 (return) \u2014 excludes several toll roads with different schedules:\nTangerang\u2013Merak Toll Road (March 12\u201313 and March 31\u2013April 1, 2026),\nKayuagung\u2013Palembang Toll Road (additional discounts on March 14, 28 and\n29, 2026), and Cimanggis\u2013Cibitung Toll Road (March 21\u201322, 2026).<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the Becakayu Toll Road has implemented a dynamic pricing\ndiscount of 10\u201320 percent through March 31, 2026, while the\nCibitung\u2013Cilincing Toll Road has offered discounts ranging from 12\u201344\npercent for Category II\u2013V vehicles through April 30, 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Hanggodo said the policy aims to prevent excessive congestion on peak\ntravel days.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe toll discount is intended to avoid excessive buildup on the main\nholiday dates. With this incentive, we expect travelers to depart and\nreturn earlier than the projected peak periods. We also hope more\nfour-wheeled vehicles will use toll roads, reducing the burden on\nnational roads,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>A total of 29 toll road sections will apply fare discounts during the\n1447 Hijri \/ 2026 Eid al-Fitr holiday period, comprising four sections\nin the Greater Jakarta corridor, 10 along the Trans-Java corridor, four\nnon\u2013Trans-Java sections, and 11 along the Trans-Sumatra corridor.<\/p>\n<p>The toll roads applying discounts during this year\u2019s Eid homecoming\nand return period are:<\/p>\n<ol type=\"1\">\n<li><p>Tangerang\u2013Merak Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Jakarta\u2013Cikampek Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Jakarta\u2013Cikampek Elevated Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Cikampek\u2013Palimanan Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Palimanan\u2013Kanci Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Kanci\u2013Pejagan Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Pejagan\u2013Pemalang Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Pemalang\u2013Batang Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Batang\u2013Semarang Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Semarang ABC Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Bakauheni\u2013Terbanggi Besar Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Terbanggi Besar\u2013Pematang Panggang\u2013Kayuagung Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Kayuagung\u2013Palembang Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Indralaya\u2013Prabumulih Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Pekanbaru\u2013Dumai Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Pekanbaru\u2013Bangkinang\u2013Koto Kampar Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Belawan\u2013Medan\u2013Tanjung Morawa Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Medan\u2013Kualanamu\u2013Tebing Tinggi Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Indrapura\u2013Kisaran Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Kuala Tanjung\u2013Tebing Tinggi\u2013Parapat Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Sigli\u2013Banda Aceh Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Cikampek\u2013Purwakarta\u2013Padalarang Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Padalarang\u2013Cileunyi Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Cileunyi\u2013Sumedang\u2013Dawuan Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Krian\u2013Legundi\u2013Bunder Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Cimanggis\u2013Cibitung Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Kelapa Gading\u2013Pulo Gebang Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Becakayu Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Cibitung\u2013Cilincing Toll Road<\/p><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Related news: Indonesia Police set toll road checkpoints for Eid 2026\nhomecoming<\/p>\n<p>Related news: Vice President Gibran inspects Semarang-Demak toll,\ntargets 2027 link<\/p>\n<p>Translator: Aji, Azis Kurmala<\/p>",
