Police Ask Motorbike Travelers To Beware Of The Jomin-Cirebon Muara Three-Small Trucks

JAKARTA - Motorcyclists for Eid Al-Fitr 2024 are advised to increase their vigilance when crossing the Cikampek-junction arterial road section of Jomin, Karawang-Cirebon, West Java because they will face a large three-axis truck.

There are large class III-V trucks carrying construction goods, motorized vehicles, free containers crossing arterial roads from either the Cirebon-Jomin Karawang-Bekasi direction or vice versa.

Head of the Kotabaru-Jomin Control Post and Head of the Kotabaru Sector Police, Iptu Suherlan, said the volume of large trucks crossing a number of arterial roads began to increase after they were banned from entering the Trans Java toll road today.

Meanwhile, at the same time, travelers using motorbikes also continued to arrive from various directions across the arterial road.

"The peak of the arrival of motorized travelers is expected from this afternoon until tonight. We are waiting for further action directions regarding how this three-axis truck will go," said Suherlan when met at the monitoring location, Friday, April 5, as reported by Antara.

According to him, in conditions like this, the arterial road at Jomin intersection is the most potential point for congestion.

This is because the Jomin intersection is the center of the vehicle meeting from Bekasi, Cikampek - Cirebon- Palimanan. In addition, the condition of the road from each section tends to narrow when entering the Jomin area.

"Facing such conditions, we maximize the control of traffic flow at each intersection axis with the strength of the joint officers," he said.

On the other hand, he also appealed, travelers who use motorbikes to be extra careful, if the body is tired, don't be forced to rest first to a safe and comfortable place, you can also approach the homecoming flow monitoring post along the way.
