Toll roads and traffic jams

Toll roads and traffic jams

From Neraca

More and more hawkers are now selling their goods on the
congested toll roads.

Motorists who hope to have a convenient, fast drive on the
toll roads may no longer be surprised to find themselves being
trapped in a traffic jam. Then the hawkers take advantage of the
situation to sell their goods.

The flow of the traffic is also hindered by workers who are
waiting for trucks at the Tomang junctions to take them to
Merak/Tangerang.

The presence of hawkers and workers is contrary to the traffic
regulation. I wonder why the PT Jasa Marga (State-owned highway
corporation) did not take precaution measures to avoid hawkers
and accidents on the toll roads.
