Semanggi I toll gate to change the rules
JAKARTA: Starting on Thursday, the City Transportation Agency will impose a new regulation at the entrance to the Semanggi toll road in a bid to relieve the heavy traffic congestion in the area.
Motorists traveling south on Jl. Sudirman (from Hotel Indonesia or Monas for example) will not be allowed to enter the Semanggi I toll gate, which is located near Crown Plaza, on Jl. Gatot Subroto, if they want to head toward Cawang or Halim.
Head of the City Transportation Agency Rustam Effendy said in a statement that the motorists should go through the Semanggi II toll gate, which is located near the Kartika Chandra Hotel and Planet Hollywood.
Workers will place separators along the road so that the southbound motorists on Jl. Sudirman could not enter the Semanggi I toll gate.
