2.1.  Project Background

DKI Jakarta, as the main social and economic activities in Java Island, has caused traffic congestion on major arterial roads as well as on toll road. Jakarta Outer Ring Road (JORR) is trunk toll road that runs at 10 to 13 km radius from the center of DKI Jakarta encircling the metropolitan area at the west, east and south area. Tanjung Priok Access Toll Road is planned as a part of JORR to replace the N Section. Both JORR and Tanjung Priok Access Toll Road have an essential role for economic and industrial activities in the central district of Indonesia, and are expected to play an integral part of the Jakarta - West Java Toll Road system.
