From Media Indonesia

During peak hours in the afternoon, when traffic is heavy on
the Tegal Parang flyover, toll roads in the city are considerably
congested, causing traffic jams as far as Hotel Maharaja and the
intersection between Jl. Kuningan and Jl. Gatot Subroto. This has
happened for quite a while.

The jams are caused by cars crossing the road from Jl. Arteri
to the Kuningan II toll gate, thus blocking the traffic to Arteri
and the lane leading to the toll gate.

In order to overcome the congestion, PT Jasa Marga (the state
road construction company) should assign officials to guard the
dividing lane between the roads to Arteri and to the Kuningan II
toll gate.

The public has complained about toll road congestion and
inferior service, while road users have to pay increased rates.
