PT Wijaya Karya (Persero) Tbk (WIKA) continues to demonstrate its commitment to supporting national infrastructure development through the strategic project of the Ancol Timur–Pluit (Elevated) Toll Road, or Harbour Road II.

The project serves as a crucial solution to alleviate traffic density while enhancing connectivity in the North Jakarta area.

Spanning 9.7 kilometres, the elevated toll road connects the Ancol Timur area to Pluit and passes through several vital points, such as Tanjung Priok and Jalan RE Martadinata.

The presence of Harbour Road II is expected to increase the capacity of existing roads and facilitate smoother logistics distribution to port areas and economic activity centres.

WIKA’s President Director, Agung Budi Waskito (Agung BW), stated that the project not only focuses on physical construction but also introduces innovation and added value for the community.

“We are committed to completing this project with the highest quality, on time, and providing positive impacts on mobility and economic growth,” he said in a written statement received by Kompas.com on Monday (6/4/2026).

The Harbour Road II project is being undertaken by WIKA in collaboration with PT Girder Indonesia (GI) under a design-and-build scheme, with a contract value of Rp 5.02 trillion and targeted for completion on 31 December 2026.

One of the main highlights of Harbour Road II lies in the uniqueness of its design and construction methods.

The project features a multi-level elevated road structure rising to around 38 metres above ground level, making it one of the tallest elevated structures in a densely urban area.

This technology falls into the category of the widest without ribs, providing efficiency as well as optimal structural strength.

Moreover, Harbour Road II also records the longest span of steel box girder without shoring at up to 70 metres.

The project is constructed in an end-to-end elevated manner amid space limitations, adjacent to existing toll roads, railway lines, rivers, residential areas, and existing buildings.

These conditions require the application of high-precision construction methods, such as bored pile, column pier, pier head, and integrated girder erection.

With these various advantages, Harbour Road II is not only an infrastructure project but also represents modern construction innovation in Indonesia.
