Proposal to Raise Parking Fees in Jakarta Aims to Ease Traffic Congestion
NEWS
The Institute for Transportation Development Policy (ITDP) recommends increasing parking fees in Jakarta as a measure to manage public travel patterns. They suggest implementing parking management zones first in areas with integrated public transportation, thereby providing residents with viable transit alternatives.
This initiative could reduce reliance on private vehicles, alleviating traffic congestion and promoting public transport use. However, details on the fee increase and its implementation are still under discussion, with transportation expert Ki Darmaningtyas supporting the need for higher parking rates to effectively combat congestion.
