JAKARTA - Polda Metro Jaya maps the point of congestion or congestion in the Jakarta area during Ramadan 1446 Hijri, especially before breaking the fast. The Downstream Dam (Benhil) to Kalimalang areas are some of them.

"Lebak Bulus. Then in the city, Benhil. Then what else, the HI Roundabout. Main Pancoran. Obviously, along the route from Pancoran to Pasar Minggu. Public activities are quite high," said Traffic Director of Polda Metro Jaya Kombes Latif Usman quoted Friday, February 28.

"If those from Daan Mogot to Kalideres are also anticipated. Likewise Kalimalang, the Kalimalang route. This is a fairly high community activity in this fasting month, we will map properly," he continued.

In addition, several points in the North Jakarta area are also expected to cause congestion. Of course, the cause is the crowd of people who want to buy takjil to break their fast.

Then, there were signs at several road points which also caused the traffic jam to slow down.

"Situasi-situasi yang saat ini pembangunan-pembangunan juga menjadi handicap tersendiri bagi kita untuk pengaturan lalu lintas sehingga lalu lintas bisa berjalan dengan lancar," sebutnya.

Therefore, a number of personnel will be deployed at the mapped locations. They are assigned to regulate traffic to prevent or minimize congestion.

"We will deploy personnel in that place to make arrangements and guard," said Latif.
