Transportation
There are two highway connections from the Jabodetabek urban area. The first is the Jakarta–Cikampek Toll Road, which has four exits in Bekasi. The other is the Jakarta Outer Ring Road, which provides access to Tangerang, Jakarta, and Bogor. Owing to its location as a satellite city of Jakarta, heavy rush hour traffic jams have become common on the roads between Jakarta and Bekasi. Efforts have been made to overcome these problems, mainly by widening the roads between Sumber Arta market and Bekasi Cyber Park along the Kalimalang river. The most recent traffic project is the planned Becakayu toll road, which will be an alternate to the Jakarta-Cikampek Toll Road. Its route will be Bekasi Utara-Cawang-Kampung Melayu.
The Central Government decided to give fund for 6 Bekasi's feeders of TransJakarta which will start the project in March 2012. All the routes will end at Kampung Rambutan Terminal, East Jakarta from Kebon Paya Ampera (2 routes), Bulak Kapal, Bekasi Trade Center (2 routes) and Joyo Martono street.
