Odd-Even Planned To Normalize Again At 25 Points In Jakarta

JAKARTA - The Traffic Directorate plans to restore the odd-even scheme at 25 points in the Jakarta area. This discourse arose because community activities had started to return to normal.

"So there is a discourse on returning Gage to normalcy again. According to Gubernatorial Regulation number 88. So 25 segments," said Head of Sub-Directorate of Gakkum Ditlantas Polda Metro Jaya AKBP Argo Wiyono when confirmed, Friday, November 5.

One of the reasons for returning to the odd-even scheme is because the volume of vehicles has increased since Jakarta was at the PPKM level 1 stage. This has an impact on the level of congestion.

"The road starts to get jammed, people go to the office in 15 minutes to half an hour. What is usually a speed of 60 km / h to 30 km / h or even 20 km / h, the slowdown is significant, right," said Argo.

However, this plan must first be discussed with the relevant institutions. Possibly, a coordination meeting with the Provincial Government (Pemprov) will be held next week.

"We invite a meeting (with) the Transportation Agency. Maybe in the next few weeks we will see if there is a significant improvement (it will be implemented)," said Argo.

For information, Polda Metro Jaya is currently implementing an odd-even scheme in 13 areas. The goal is to suppress community mobility.

Areas that apply odd-even conditions include Sudirman Street, MH Thamrin Street, HR Rasuna Said Street, Fatmawati Street, Panglima Polim Street, Sisimgangaraja Street, and MT Haryono Street.

Then, Jalan Gatot Subroto, Jalan S Parman, Jalan Tomang Raya, Jalan Gunung Sahari, Jalan DI Panjaitan, and Jalan Ahmad Yani.
