JAKARTA. PT Jasa Marga (Persero) Tbk (JSMR) will start operating the fifth section of the Pandaan-Malang toll road, namely Pakis-Malang section, today (8/4), free of charge, in order to attract the interest of people around Surabaya and Malang.

Agus Purnomo, President Director of PT Jasamarga Pandaan Malang (JPM), said the Pakis-Malang section is the last section of the Pandaan-Malang toll road project. "With the operation of the fifth section, the Pandaan-Malang Toll Road has become fully operational," Purnomo said through an official statement.

JPM said that the Pakis-Malang toll road section could cut travel time from 30 minutes to 10 minutes.

Previously, the operation of the Pakis-Malang toll road section was hampered for 2 months, since there is a discovery of a historic site during the toll road construction. However, JPM has asked the Cultural Heritage Preservation Agency to handle the site. (KR/AR)
