Kalideres Terminal Authority Urges Travelers Not To Use Shadow Terminal

JAKARTA - Head of Kalideres Terminal, Revi Zulkarnaen said that the official terminal in DKI Jakarta already has facilities that function to make users comfortable. Therefore, he appealed to passengers not to get on from the shadow terminal.

"We urge all travelers to get on from the official terminal for safety and convenience," said Revi when contacted in Jakarta, quoted by Antara, Tuesday, April 19.

The first advantage that you get if you ride from the official terminal is that you can enjoy a comfortable waiting room, toilet facilities, restaurants, prayer rooms, and complete health facilities.

Each official terminal also provides antigen and rapid test services to booster vaccine booths for passengers. In addition, the official terminal also provides clear ticket prices and can be monitored directly.

"At Kalideres Terminal the ticket prices are clear and we can monitor it. Outside, we don't know what kind of ticket it is," said Revi.

Not only that, the terminal manager also ensures the safety of the passengers through bus checks. At the Kalideres terminal itself, Revi and his staff carried out ram checks on every Inter-City Inter-Provincial (AKAP) bus.

"Every day we also conduct urine tests on all operating bus drivers to ensure the health of bus drivers before leaving," he said.
