Minister of Public Works and Housing Basuki Hadimuljono and several other officials accompanied Vice President @kyai_marufamin to inaugurate the Cimanggis-Cibitung Toll Road at the Cileungsi River Bridge KM 57+400, Bogor Regency, West Java, on Tuesday (July 9th, 2024).

The Cimanggis-Cibitung Toll Road, spanning 26.18 km, is part of the Jakarta Outer Ring Road (JORR) 2 network, crossing four regions: Depok City, Bekasi City, Bogor Regency, and Bekasi Regency.

This toll road consists of two sections: Section 1 from Cimanggis Junction to Jatikarya and Section 2 from Jatikarya to Cibitung. Previously, Section 1 and Section 2A, with a total length of 6.5 km, were already operational, while Section 2B from Cikeas to Cibitung (19.7 km) was inaugurated today and will soon be operational.

Vice President Ma’ruf Amin hopes that this toll road can reduce travel time from Bogor to Bekasi to only 30-45 minutes, and the integration of the Cimanggis-Cibitung Toll Road with other toll road networks in Greater Jakarta (Jabodetabek) can enhance connectivity between areas, thus promoting efficiency and effectiveness of economic activities in the Greater Jakarta area.

The Cimanggis-Cibitung Toll Road complements the JORR 2 network with a total length of 111 km, where other sections from Cengkareng - Kunciran - Serpong - Cinere - Jagorawi - Cimanggis, then Cibitung - Cilincing, which were previously operational, cover a length of 91.3 km.

“JORR 2 is finally fully connected from Cengkareng to Cilincing. If you want to travel from west to east, you don’t need to enter Jakarta first; you can use this toll road directly to Cikampek. This will reduce congestion within Jakarta city,” said Minister Basuki.
