s vehicles on the Jakarta-Cikampek toll route have begun forming long lines, state-owned toll road operator PT Jasa Marga is implementing a contraflow system to ease congestion.
Vehicles were seen queuing to enter the main toll entrance for up to nine kilometers on the Cikampek road on Friday.
"We will implement contraflow arrangements in two spots on the toll route from Kilometer 14 to 21 and kilometer 32 to 41," Jasa Marga spokesperson said in Bekasi, West Java, on Friday.
Apart from long queue at the tollgate, a traffic jam was also spotted at the Cikarang Utama exit gate, he added.
