Semarang–Demak Toll Road is an under-construction toll road that will connect Semarang with Demak in Java, Indonesia.[1] The 24.7km (15.3miles) toll road will act as a complement to the Trans-Java Toll Road. The toll road will increase accessibility and road network in the northern parts of Java. The toll road will be integrated with a sea dike at the northern beach of Semarang City, all the way until the Sayung River at Demak Regency.[2]

The goal of constructing this toll road is to minimize congestion along the Semarang–Demak-Surabaya northern coast road of Java and also to the tourist cities in Demak, namely; Kadilangu/Sunan Kalijaga Tomb and Demak Great Mosque, as well as to overcome tidal flooding along the northern coast as a retaining sea wall guarder. The toll road is expected to be completed by 2021.[3]

Sections

The toll road is divided into two sections, namely Section I of Semarang City and Section II of Demak Regency.
