Jakarta's Entry And Exit Prohibition Scheme Is Constrained By Many Problems At Border Points

JAKARTA - The Traffic Directorate of Polda Metro Jaya noted that in the blocking scheme for the Implementation of Emergency Community Activity Restrictions (PPKM), there were a few problems at the DKI Jakarta border. Because, there is a buildup of vehicles.

"What is still a PR is the partitions at the city limits, such as in Kaliders between Tangerang and West Jakarta, Bekasi and East Jakarta, Lenteng Agung, Depok and South Jakarta," said Traffic Director of Polda Metro Jaya Kombes Sambodo Purnomo Yogo to reporters on Saturday. , July 3rd.

The cause of the accumulation of vehicles, continued Sambodo, was due to having to screen people who were allowed to pass. However, these problems can be overcome and will be evaluated in the future.

"At these points there was indeed a fairly long overcrowding because we had to filter and inspect the thousands of vehicles that were still trying to move into Jakarta," he said.

In fact, to be able to cross the barrier point in the border area, people use various reasons. However, Sambodo emphasized that he would not allow anyone to pass unless they were in the category of essential and critical sectors.

"Yes, there are various reasons, of course what we allow to pass are people who work in essential and critical sectors," he said.

However, so far no action has been taken. Considering the implementation of this policy has only been running for a day. So, it takes time for people to understand and adapt.

"There is no action yet. This is the first day, the troops are trying all kinds of things, right. Everyone is still learning, members are also learning, the community is also learning about socialization, in the future it will be better," he said.

Previously, it was reported that the Polda Metro Jaya would close all entrances and exits to Jakarta starting tonight. This closure is in line with the policy for the Enforcement of Emergency Community Activity Restrictions (PPKM).

"We will close all entrances and exits to Jakarta and strict inspections will be carried out," said Metro Jaya Police Chief Inspector General Fadil Imran to reporters, Friday, July 2.
