The Jakarta–Cikampek Toll Road () or Japek is a controlled-access toll road in Indonesia that was inaugurated in 1988. A part of the Trans-Java Toll Road network, the highway links Jakarta with cities to its east in the province of West Java. Its 36.84 kilometer-long Cikunir–West Karawang section overlaps with the Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Skyway.

History Jakarta–Cikampek Toll Road was inaugurated on 19 November 1988, linking Jakarta, Bekasi, Bekasi Regency, Karawang Regency, and Purwakarta Regency. The loan was financed by the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD).

Since 2005, this toll road also connects Bandung and Jakarta via the separate Cipularang Toll Road; the interchange to Bandung was built before the Kalihurip exit. This toll road is also part of AH2. The toll road is operated by PT Jasa Marga Tbk. In June 2015, the Cikopo–Palimanan Toll Road was opened, which means Jakarta and Cirebon are now connected via toll roads.World Bank: Jakarta - Cikampek Highway Project accessed 14 August 2009. An elevated toll road is built to reduce congestion of this toll road.

After the closure of Cikarang Utama Toll Gate on 23 May 2019, the central toll gate is relocated to Cikampek Utama (to/from Cirebon-Semarang-bound) and Kalihurip Utama (to/from Purwakarta–Cileunyi Toll Road-bound).

Road Information Jakarta–Cikampek Toll Road is nominated as the most congested highway in Indonesia, especially in the area of Cikunir JCT- Bekasi Barat (although half of the expressway is 8-lanes dual carriageway (KM0-KM37) and another half is 6 lanes (KM37-KM73). By the completion of the Jakarta–Cikampek Elevated Toll Road spanning from Cikunir to West Karawang, the capacity is expanded and congestion is slightly decreasing along this stretch (another stretch after Karawang Barat eastbound is, unfortunately, more congested.)

As of 2021, the Jakarta-Cikampek toll road is surrounded by 2 main projects which are under construction : LRT Cawang-Bekasi Timur (north section, KM0-KM18, under construction) and Jakarta-Bandung High-Speed Railway (south section, KM0-KM38).

which has since expanded to 7 lanes (4 lanes westbound + 3 lanes westbound)
