Jasa Marga to close airport toll gate
JAKARTA: Beginning at midnight on Sunday, toll operator Jasa Marga will close one of the three toll gates on the Cengkareng airport toll road.
"This policy is meant to improve services on the toll road and increase its capacity," Jasa Marga executive Septerianto was quoted as saying by Antara on Saturday.
He said daily traffic on the toll road was increasing by up to 8 percent a year. Currently, about 70,000 vehicles use the road daily.
Motorists traveling from Cengkareng now have to go through three toll gates, paying Rp 2,000 at the airport toll gate, Rp 2,000 at the Kapuk toll gate and Rp 4,000 at the inner city toll gate.
Under the new policy, motorists will only have to pay Rp 2,000 at the airport toll gate and Rp 6,000 at the Pluit toll gate.
Septerianto said toll cardholders could continue to use their cards for transactions.-- JP
