2.1.  Project Background

Yogyakarta (Jogja) and Solo have their own attraction for the locals and tourists. The two cities are rich in local culture because they have Javanese palaces as well as there are numerous statues spread around this area. This makes Yogyakarta and Solo have become an important tourist destination in Indonesia. During holiday season such as Christmas & New Year Holiday and Idul Fitri Holiday, a massive congestion happened along this area. As a result, a new development of toll road which connecting Jogja - Solo will overcome congestion problem and finally, it will accelerate the mobilization of people from Jogja to Solo.
