JAKARTA - The Head of Tanjung Priok Bus Terminal, Sandi Zamri, said that in the period from December 18-25, 2025, as many as 4,637 passengers were sent using 611 intercity buses (AKAP) from the Tanjung Priok Terminal, North Jakarta.
"Over the past week, a total of 4,637 passengers have departed using 611 AKAP buses. The terminal conditions are still safe and smooth," said Sandi in Jakarta, Friday, December 26, 2025, as reported by Antara.
He said that during the Christmas and New Year's holiday period, there was an increase in the number of AKAP bus passengers. However, in general, the situation at the terminal is still under control, orderly, and smooth.
Furthermore, he explained that his party had prepared a security post (pospam) which was the result of collaboration between the North Jakarta Metro Police and the North Jakarta Administration City Government.
"Pospam was alerted from December 18, 2025 to January 5, 2026," said Sandi.
According to him, all AKAP bus fleets that operate have undergone roadworthiness inspections (rampcheck) to ensure passenger safety.
In addition, drivers and conductors have also undergone health examinations and urine tests.
"We ensure that all buses depart in good condition. This is done to ensure the safety, security, and comfort of the public during the journey at the moment of Nataru (Christmas and New Year)," said Sandi.
On the other hand, he said that the majority of passengers had destinations to Central Java and East Java, including Pekalongan, Tegal, Banjarnegara, Pemalang, Malang, and Madura.
Meanwhile, some other passengers headed to West Java, such as Bandung and Tasikmalaya.
In addition to the departure flow, he continued, the arrival flow of passengers at the Tanjung Priok Terminal was also quite crowded.
In the same period, a total of 2,384 passengers arrived using 692 AKAP buses.
"We appeal to all passengers to always comply with the applicable rules and take care of their respective luggage. Hopefully, this year's Nataru return flow can run safely and without obstacles," said Sandi.
