Indonesia: Area traffic control system (ATCS)

To regulate inflow from outside Jakarta into Jakarta in the morning, and the outflow in the evening, the government and the freeway administrators considered the idea of a road pricing scheme.  It would increase inflow toll price into the city during morning, and outflow toll price during the evening.  Within the city, a mandatory pricing scheme in the form of stickers or three in one regulations will be applied in highly congested areas such as the Central Business District.  These initiatives did not materialize, however. The Area Traffic Control System is applied in main corridors and in the most dense traffic areas. Carpooling is encouraged and promoted through incentives: with the 3-in-1scheme, for two main corridors only private cars with three or more passengers can enter during peak hours (6:30-10am/5-7pm on weekdays). 

Date Implemented: 1996

Status: In Force; Mandatory
