Jakarta Odd-Even Policy January 10, 2025: Check Affected Routes

KatadataOTO – Welcoming the weekend holiday, the DKI government will still implement the Jakarta odd-even traffic restriction. In fact, enforcement is expected to be stricter than usual.

This is because on Fridays, the vehicle population is usually higher, so concrete action is needed to avoid traffic congestion. The Metro Jaya Regional Police have been engaged to carry out this task.

Today, Friday (10/01), it is the turn for even-plated cars to pass freely on dozens of main roads. Meanwhile, vehicles with odd numbers must wait until the restriction period is over.

The public is also expected to use the public transportation facilities provided by the government. These range from TransJakarta, LRT, MRT to KRL with affordable fares, ensuring mobility is maintained.

It should be noted that the government only implements the Jakarta odd-even policy in the morning and afternoon. Thus, people can still use cars with non-compliant plates for activities at certain times.

Jakarta Odd-Even Schedule

• Morning: 06:00 AM to 10:00 AM (WIB)
• Afternoon: 04:00 PM to 09:00 PM (WIB)

Not only that, the government will also provide several alternative routes that can be used by cars with non-compliant plates. However, the routes are detours, making the travel time longer.

In addition, some vehicles are also given leeway and are not affected by the Jakarta odd-even policy. One of them is electric cars, whose development is currently being encouraged by the central government. 

List of Vehicles Exempt from Jakarta Odd-Even Policy

• Electric cars
• TNI-Polri (Military/Police) vehicles
• Ambulances
• Fire trucks
• Healthcare worker vehicles, including doctors
• Public transport and taxis

Besides deploying officers, the police also use technology to monitor traffic. From Static to Mobile ETLE (Electronic Traffic Law Enforcement) will be deployed as long as the traffic engineering is in effect.

All violations will be subject to a fine of Rp 500,000. This rule is in accordance with Article 287 of Law Number 12 of 2009 concerning Road Traffic and Transportation (LLAJ).

To make the Jakarta odd-even policy more effective, the police are implementing a contraflow system on the inner-city toll road from km 0+200 (Cawang) to km 7+200 (Semanggi) from 06:00 AM to 10:00 AM (WIB).

The DKI government is also implementing traffic engineering in several locations to support MRT construction. Therefore, the public is expected to adjust their travel schedules.
