[ABSTRACT ]

In Jakarta, the Covid-19 pandemic has reduced vehicle traffic due to the implementation of work from home (WFH) and activity restriction policy (PPKM). This study aims to analyze the road traffic performance during PPKM and after the relaxation of this policy on Jenderal Sudirman Street in Jakarta. Calculation of vehicle operation cost is done using The LAPI ITB 1996 method. The analysis results indicate change of level of services (LoS). LoS decreases from C level during PPKM to F level after the relaxation. The results also indicate that there are increase in the potential loss due congestion from IDR 199,752,264.00/day during PPKM to IDR 1,633,734,268.00/day, after the relaxation of PPKM policy. Based on this value, the potential loss of costs due to congestion is very large under new normal conditions and after the covid pandemic.
