The city is considering increasing parking fees in downtown Jakarta as part of efforts to reduce traffic congestion.
Jakarta Transportation Agency head Andri Yansyah said on Wednesday the policy would push people to use public transportation as well as increase city revenue.
"When the plan is realized, downtown Jakarta, which will be categorized as zone one, will have the highest parking fees," Andri said.
"Later, we will make the fees as low as possible in zone three so that vehicle owners will park there and travel onward to downtown by public transportation," he said as quoted by kompas.com.
Andi said a regulation on the policy had not been issued as details and zoning areas had yet to be discussed. (hol)
