"The offender will be charged Rp 500 thousand. If we control thousands of cars, we will get Rp 500 million per day," he expressed, at City Hall, Tuesday (8/30).
He hoped it can give a deterrent effect for the motorist. But he believes there will be a lot of violations in its application later.
Odd-Even Traffic System to Apply Normally TomorrowBasuki continued that such policy is more effective than the previous policy that is 3 in 1. However, it will be removed after the electronic road pricing (ERP) ready to be applied.
"Odd-even is actually better than 3 in 1. But it is not as good and effective as ERP," he exclaimed.
Nevertheless, he will continue to add more buses in the city. Even service at corridor 1 (Blok M-Kota) has begun to improve.
"We will add more buses. For corridor 1, our bus already nice," he finished.
