The Jagorawi Toll Road was the first toll road in Indonesia. Construction on the highway began in 1973 by some 200 workers at a cost of 350 million Indonesian rupiah per kilometer; it was officially opened by President of Indonesia Suharto on 9 March 1978. [Arief Rahman Topan, "Jagorawi", "Jurnal Republik", 15 September 2007.]

The Jagorawi Toll Road links the capital city of Jakarta to the West Javanese cities of Bogor and Ciawi. It has a length of more than 60 km going north and southbound and is operated by "PT Jasa Marga", a state-owned enterprise. The name Jagorawi comes from the acronym of areas which it connects which are (Ja)karta - Bo(gor) - Ci(awi).

The Jagorawi Toll Road has two gas stations that belong to Pertamina which are combined with restaurants, rest areas, and even a factory outlet.

The toll road is operated by PT Jasa Marga Tbk.

History

In 1973, the Indonesian government began building the first highway linking the capital Jakarta with the city of Bogor. When the road was still in its construction phase, it was not officially a toll road. When the highway was nearly finished, the government began considering ways to execute the operation and maintenance of the highway autonomously, without burden on governmental financing. For that purpouse, the Labor Department suggested that the portion of the road between Jakarta and Bogor be changed to a toll road. Private investors, with government financing, created the semi-private corporation Jasa Marga and arranged to manage the highway two weeks before its opening.
