Starting Monday Afternoon, Starting From Kalikangkung To Cikampek Toll Gate, One-way Is Implemented
JAKARTA - Coordinating Minister for Human Development and Culture (PMK) Muhadjir Effendy opened the implementation of the one-way route from the Kalikangkung Semarang Toll Gate, Central Java, towards the Cikampek Toll Gate, Monday.
Coordinating Minister for Human Development and Culture Muhadjir Effendy together with the National Police Headquarters Inspector General of Police Firman Shantyabudi and Central Java Police Chief Inspector General Ahmad Luthfi opened the one-way route at 14:45 WIB.
"There is a slight delay because the flow of homecoming from the west is still quite congested," Muhadjir said as quoted by Antara.
He asked the travelers to prepare fuel and electronic money cards for transactions at toll stations, because the journey from Kalikangkung to Cikampek is quite long.
Officers from the police, he continued, will provide escort on line A from east to west so that they are orderly and safe to their destination.
"No one should preempt the mat. Travelers will be escorted until Cikampek," he said.

He also appealed to travelers to rest at rest but not for too long.
"If you are very tired, you should first go out to the nearest 'exit' of the toll road, then rest, then go back to the toll road," he said.
Head of Traffic Police, Inspector General of Police Firman Shantyabudi, appealed to travelers who have entered route B not to move to lane A which is looser.
"This is for smooth running together," he said.
Previously, the peak of the first wave of backflow was expected to occur on April 24 and 25, 2023. Meanwhile, the peak of the second wave of backflow is estimated from April 30 to May 1, 2023.
