History

Westbound Jakarta–Merak Toll Road heading to Merak in 2018

The Jakarta–Merak Toll Road is the second toll road to be opened in Indonesia after the Jagorawi Toll Road in 1978. The first westbound exit is located at Kebon Jeruk. It also has exits in Tangerang, Balaraja, Cikande, Ciujung, Serang, Pandeglang and Cilegon, before ending at Merak.

On 9 April 2017, the Karang Tengah toll gate was abolished due to constant traffic congestions around the vicinity.[3]
