Jakarta Workers Can Go To Office Using Bikes Again

JAKARTA - The Traffic Directorate of Polda Metro Jaya has decided to allow bike to work (B2W) activities during the PPKM level 3. This decision is based on the evaluation results from several days of the trial process.

"Yes, it's okay (bike to work). It has been continued onwards," said the Director of Traffic of the Polda Metro Jaya Kombes Sambodo Purnomo Yogo when contacted, Saturday, September 11.

With the permission granted, the community can channel their hobby of cycling to go to work. They can cross the Sudirman-Thamrin area.

However, Sambodo emphasized that having been granted a permit does not mean that other cyclists are also allowed. Because, only bike-to-work activities are currently allowed to pass.

"But while the other bikes are still not working," said Sambodo.

Previously, the police had banned bicycles from crossing the odd-even system for fear of causing a crowd of cyclists that could trigger the transmission of COVID-19.

However, B2W considers the ban discriminatory. This is because many residents use their bicycles as a means of transportation to and from work.
