JAKARTA - Traffic engineering will be implemented following demonstrations against the increase in fuel oil prices (BBM) in the Horse Statue area, Central Jakarta. Drivers are asked to avoid the area.

"The public is advised to avoid the Monas Horse Statue Roundabout, Abdul Muis Street, Medan Merdeka, and Harmoni, due to the activity of expressing opinions by elements of society," wrote the Instagram account @TMCPoldaMetro quoted on Thursday, September 15.

The traffic engineering scheme that will be implemented is that vehicles from the direction of the HI Roundabout to Jalan Medan Merdeka Barat will be diverted to Jalan Budi Kemuliaan or Jalan Medan Merdeka Selatan.

Then, the driver from the direction of Tugu Tani to Jalan Medan Merdeka Utara was diverted to Jalan Perwira. However, the diversion of this flow is situational.

Then, motorists from Jalan Hayam Wuruk to Jalan Majapahit or Jalan Medan Merdeka Utara will be diverted to Jalan Ir. H Juanda or Jalan Suryopranoto.

Next, the driver from Abdul Muis Street to Gajah Mada Street was diverted to Tanah Abang Satu Street.

Demonstrations against the increase in fuel oil prices (BBM) continue to be held. In fact, for today there are at least six locations for mass action.

"The number of alliances or groups is 6 with a mass of approximately 2,000 people," said Head of Public Relations of Polda Metro Jaya Kombes E. Zulpan.

Based on the data, the mass action of other student elements who are members of the All-Indonesian Student Executive Board (BEM SI) will hold a demonstration in the Horse Statue area.
