Traffic congestion on Fatmawati Road has resulted in longer travel times, increased air pollution, and economic losses. To address this issue, this study evaluates the implementation of the Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) system as an effort to reduce vehicle volume and promote public transportation use. The research adopts a quantitative approach with a case study on Fatmawati Road, specifically between the Ketimun 1 Intersection and the TB Simatupang Intersection. Data was collected through road user surveys, road volume and capacity measurements, and analysis of the degree of saturation. The data analysis technique used is binary logistic regression to assess the potential shift in transportation modes and road users' preferences regarding ERP pricing implementation.

The study findings indicate that implementing ERP on Fatmawati Road can reduce traffic volume during peak hours by 15%, increase the average vehicle speed by up to 12%, and significantly decrease the degree of saturation. Although some road users are willing to pay the ERP rate, most of the public opposes this policy. Implementing ERP on Fatmawati Road has effectively reduced congestion and improved traffic performance. However, the success of this policy requires broader public support. Therefore, an effective communication strategy and the development of transportation infrastructure are necessary to ensure the success of this policy.
