JAKARTA - The Ministry of Transportation (Kemenhub) opened the 2019 Christmas and New Year 2020 Transport Posts to monitor the conditions of a number of locations that are considered prone to congestion and congestion during the year-end holidays.

"As with the Lebaran holidays, we are also preparing a post to monitor the density of the flow of year-end holidays by involving a number of other stakeholders, such as Pertamina, BMKG, the Police, ASDP, and Jasa Marga," said Director General of Land Transportation, Kemenhub Budi Setiyadi in Jakarta , Thursday 19 December.

The 2019 Christmas and New Year 2020 Transport Posts are located at the Ministry of Transportation's Office, Jalan Medan Merdeka Barat, Central Jakarta, and will operate from 19 December 2019-6 January 2020.

Budi, the existence of this post allows the authorities to continue to monitor the flow of vehicle and human traffic congestion for 24 hours, and if there is a congestion or density deemed to be disturbing movement, then immediate action can be taken.

In the post, said Budi, 151 call centers were also provided to make it easier for the public to convey information and complaints about congestion, natural disasters, and information about transportation.

"The public can participate in conveying various information by calling 151 call centers and then our officers will respond," said Budi.

A number of locations being monitored by the post include Makassar, Balikpapan, Gilimanuk, Ngurah Rai Airport, Kualanamu Airport, and Ketapang Port.

The determination of the monitoring post points, said Budi, was deliberately carried out not only in locations on the island of Java, but also scattered to several areas outside Java.

"We don't want the impression of being Java-centric, but all locations that have the potential for congestion will be the Ministry of Transportation's attention," he said.

After inaugurating the use of the post, Director General Budi Setiyadi had the opportunity to hold a long-distance conference with a number of regional officials to find out about the development of year-end homecoming flows.

From that discussion, as of today Thursday (19/12) there has not been an increase in vehicle and passenger density. It is estimated that the spike will occur on December 20 and 21, 2019.

Several days ago Budi said, several locations were considered prone to congestion during the Christmas and New Year 2020 holiday seasons, namely the Main Cikampek Toll Gate, Kalihurip Main Toll Gate, Cileunyi Toll Gate, Bandung, Nagrek-Limbangan, Bogor Puncak route.

"Furthermore, in the Central Java region, areas that have the potential to experience congestion are the Cirebon national road to Semarang," he said.
