Collaborative Governance in the Electronic Road Pricing Implementation Plan in Jakarta

Abstract

The proliferation of private vehicle ownership and the associated increase in traffic volume has
prompted the government to introduce an Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) policy to manage
congestion and mitigate air pollution in the Special Region of Jakarta (DKI). This study seeks to
delve into the application of collaborative governance in the Jakarta ERP policy's execution by
giving prominence to the historical aspects of problem identification, planning review, system
context study, dynamic elaboration, collaborative actions, and resulting outcomes, to fulfill the
government's objectives for the ERP plan. The research methodology employs a literature review
and case study, qualitative descriptive methods, and secondary data. The findings reveal a
collaborative governance process within the Jakarta ERP policy's implementation, particularly
concerning system context, collaborative governance regime, collaborative dynamics,
collaborative actions, and their associated outcomes. Moreover, based on the study's findings, the
DKI Provincial Government is urged to sustain the engagement of community and private
stakeholders in formulating draft regional regulations about electronic traffic control and to
enhance the management and governance of transportation infrastructure in Jakarta, all aimed
at guaranteeing the inclusiveness, effectiveness, quality, and acceptance of this policy up until its
future execution.
