Jasa Marga Metropolitan Tollroad Regional Division (JMT) has prepared several Rest and Service Areas (TIPs) for road users during the 2026 Iduladha long holiday period. These rest areas are available on several toll roads leading to Bandung and the Puncak area to support travellers’ comfort amid increasing return traffic to Jabodetabek. Road users heading to Bandung and surrounding areas can use TIPs at KM 72, KM 88, and KM 147 on the Cipularang and Padaleunyi Toll Roads. Meanwhile, those travelling to the Puncak area via the Jagorawi Toll Road can use TIPs at KM 10, KM 35, and KM 45.
