The Jakarta-Cikampek II toll road project worth 16.2 trillion rupiahs ($1.1 billion) was previously inaugurated by the President in December 2019 in a bid to reduce congestion in the country’s busiest toll road.

A photo of the new road sign of the 36.4-kilometer toll road went viral on social media recently.
