The Coordinating Ministry for Infrastructure and Regional Development\n(Kemenko Infra) has set a target that by 1 January 2027, there will be\nno more over-dimension and over-load (ODOL) trucks or vehicles on toll\nroads.<\/p>\n
Nazib Faizal, Deputy for Basic Infrastructure Coordination at Kemenko\nInfra, expressed hope that by 2027, roads across Indonesia could be free\nfrom ODOL trucks. \u201cWe target that, at the very latest, by 1 January\n2027, there will be no more ODOL on toll roads,\u201d Nazib stated during the\nIndonesia International Sustainable Forum in Jakarta on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
According to his data, one in four trucks violates regulations\nregarding weight and dimensions. He noted that for those frequently\nusing the Cikampek Toll Road, it is safer to stop if feeling drowsy, as\ndata shows approximately three accidents occur daily on that route, with\nbroken axles being the most frequent cause due to overloaded trucks.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, the Ministry of Transportation (Kemenhub) reported that\nthe integration of data regarding freight and logistics, as part of the\npreparations for the Zero ODOL implementation in January 2027, has\nreached 98 per cent. Director General of Land Transportation, Aan\nSuhanan, stated that the government is executing several steps in\naccordance with the Zero ODOL action plan, ranging from data integration\nand digitalised supervision to law enforcement and regulatory\npreparation. He emphasised that the Ministry of Transportation remains\ncommitted to the January 2027 implementation timeline.<\/p>\n
In addition to data integration, the Ministry of Transportation has\nconducted trials for digitalised supervision and law enforcement for\nfreight vehicles. Meanwhile, the Toll Road Regulatory Agency (BPJT)\nunder the Ministry of Public Works (PU) is prepared to install 10\nadditional Weigh-in-Motion (WIM) systems on toll roads to support the\nmonitoring and enforcement of ODOL vehicles.<\/p>\n
Head of BPJT, Ni Komang Rasminiati, stated that the Ministry of\nPublic Works supports enforcement against ODOL vehicles in coordination\nwith the Ministry of Transportation and the National Police. She added\nthat the WIM systems will be integrated with the Police\u2019s Electronic\nTraffic Law Enforcement (ETLE) and the Ministry of Transportation\u2019s\nElectronic Test Pass Certificate (BLUe), ensuring that enforcement\nagainst ODOL vehicles is both effective and efficient.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/infrastructure-ministry-targets-zero-over-dimension-over-load-trucks-on-toll-roads-by-1-january-2027-1791345676", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
