Jasa Marga completes road construction

CIREBON, West Java: State toll road operator PT Jasa Marga completed the construction on Friday of six kilometers of toll road connecting Tegalkarang and Palimanan in Cirebon regency, West Java.

The new toll road is expected to help reduce traffic congestion along the north coast of West Java during the Idul Fitri holiday, said Hardjono Santoso, the head of the company's Palimanan-Kanci District Office.

The road can accommodate some 40,000 cars per day, he said. -- JP
