This article analyzes the impact of the construction of the Cinere-Jagorawi (Cijago) Toll Road Section II, which connects the Bogor Highway and the Kukusan area on the environment around the toll road construction site. Most of the Kukusan areas affected by the toll road construction project are open areas and shrubs, which are habitats for wild animals, especially snakes so that the balance of snake habitat in the area is disturbed. The research method used in this study is the historical method which consists of four stages, namely heuristics, verification, interpretation, and historiography. In addition to books obtained from several libraries, the data used in this study were also obtained from interviews with people living near toll road construction projects, especially ornamental plant traders. This research shows that environmental changes due to the construction of toll road infrastructure impact the disruption of the habitat of several wild animals and an increase in temperature and concerns about the availability of clean water in the future, especially in the Kukusan area.
