Abstract

The Prambanan-Klaten Toll Road exemplifies multi-level infrastructure delivery within Indonesia’s National Strategic Projects (Proyek Strategis Nasional, PSN), spanning central ministries, land agencies, provincial governments, a state-owned toll-road, and the Yogyakarta Sultanate as a traditional authority. Guided by Emerson, Nabatchi, and Balogh’s Collaborative Governance Regime (CGR) framework, the analysis draws on Board-level documents from PT Jasamarga Jogja Solo and triangulates regulatory and media sources. Findings show a formally coordinated, hierarchy-inflected arrangement that nonetheless displays adaptive capacity through contract addenda, revisions to site determination (Penlok), and the documented termination of a rest-area partnership. Institutional design enables cross-actor coordination, yet public participation remains limited. The study argues for the institutionalization of public participation and strengthen deliberative mechanisms in projects that intersect with living spaces and land regimes such as Sultan Ground (SG) and Tanah Kas Desa (TKD). It contributes to Indonesian infrastructure governance literature and specifies design levers for trust-based, transparent, co-produced policy approaches.
