A rest area at Kilometer 429 of Semarang-Solo toll road section in Ungaran, Central Java, as seen on Tuesday (14/5/2019).

The launch of the Trans-Java highway was a bane for the local economy in several regions, especially on Java’s northern coast. Many restaurants, souvenir shops and other local businesses were affected. However, some local businesspeople have chosen to set up their shops at the highway’s rest areas to tackle the problem.

Herman Setiadi, 38, arranged his salted eggs at a kiosk in the Kilometer 260 B rest area on the Pejagan-Pemalang toll road. In five minutes, he neatly arranged his salted eggs into a pyramid shape. At the same time, he also catered to his customers in the rest area established in what was formerly the Banjaratma Sugar Factory in Brebes regency, Central Java.
