This is the Length of Operational Toll Roads from the Soeharto to Jokowi Eras

President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) stated that his administration has built 1,900 kilometers (km) of toll roads.

“Mr. Minister of Public Works, how many kilometers have been built in these seven years? 1,900 kilometers. Previously, in 40 years, only 780 kilometers were built,” Jokowi said, as reported by the official website of the Indonesian Cabinet Secretariat on Thursday (April 14th).

This statement was made by Jokowi at the Signing Ceremony of the Master Agreement between the Indonesia Investment Authority (INA) with Hutama Karya and the Confirmation of the Commencement of the Transaction with Waskita Karya-WTR, held at the Djuanda I Building, Ministry of Finance, Jakarta, on Thursday (April 14th).

So, is it true that the government under President Jokowi's leadership has successfully built 1,900 km of toll roads?

Based on data from the Toll Road Regulatory Agency (BPJT), the length of toll roads operating in Indonesia until February 2022 reached 2,499.06 km.

This toll road length is divided into 67 sections spanning Sumatra, Java, Kalimantan, Sulawesi, and Bali.
