The Kraksaan-Paiton section of the Probolinggo-Banyuwangi Highway on the island of Java is now open but with limited travel, according to Indonesian media reports.

Main construction of the 11.2km-long section has been completed with road markings, signs, barriers, guardrails and public street lighting, along with the toll gate at the town of Paiton.

The highway has been operating as a one-way system during the Eid holiday period, the end of the holy month of Ramadan, with traffic flowing from Kraksaan to Paiton for some time and then from Paiton to Kraksaan.

The four-lane road has a 100kph speed limit and will connect to the 13km Gending-Kraksaan toll road section. This national strategic project is managed by PT JPB, with majority ownership by PT Jasa Marga (Persero) Tbk at 96.33%. It is being constructed by a consortium of HKI, PT Acset Indonusa Tbk. (ACST) and PT Nindya Karya (NK).

The Probolinggo–Banyuwangi Toll Road in East Java will run from the Probolinggo Regency (region) eastward through the Situbondo Regency and end in the Banyuwangi Regency. The toll road will be integrated with Banyuwangi’ port of Ketapang to allow crossing from the island of Java to Bali. The toll road is the final phase of Trans-Java Toll Road with the port of Merak on the western end.
