Selecting Jakarta Metropolitan Area as a case study, this study aims to evaluate transport policies such as Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) and telework in order to control the high travel demand. One method to evaluate such a transport policy is through transport modeling. However, the traditional approach could not consider and simulate the changing of travel behavior caused by changes in socio-economic as well as infrastructure development in the future. The concept of the Activity-Based Model (ABM) developed by Sadayuki Yagi (2007) is utilized in this study in order to highlight the advantages of evaluating transport policies with ABM. Some advantages of ABM in this study are the concept of tours and the ability to generate OD data based on modes/destinations and time of day, which facilitates the study to consider joint activities among household members and the information to know exactly where and when the ERP policy is best set up.
