BANDARLAMPUNG - The City Government (Pemkot) of Bandarlampung has prepared a homecoming post ahead of Eid Al-Fitr 1443 Hijri (Eid 2022) at a number of points in this city.

"Until now, we are still coordinating the homecoming post point with the Bandarlampung Polresta Satlantas," said the Acting (PLT) Head of the Bandarlampung Transportation Service (Kadishub), Socrat Pringgodanu, quoted by Antara, Monday, April 18.

However, he emphasized that one point for which a homecoming post would be established was at the Rajabasa Main Terminal, Lampung Province.

"There will also be a number of personnel on duty 24 hours a day at the established posts," said Socrat.

Then regarding the anticipation of congestion on the protocol roads of Bandarlampung City during Lebaran homecoming, he said that he would work to unravel it together with the police.

"The name is the homecoming flow, there must be an increase in the number of vehicles, we have monitored it with the Satlantas Polresta, but because the crowds and traffic jams can't be avoided. At least together with the Satlantas Polresta we can reduce congestion, especially during Eid al-Fitr," he said.

Socrat said that traffic engineering ahead of the homecoming season had not yet been planned.

"Traffic engineering is a national situation. No engineering is planned from now on, but if we need to do it later, we will do it," he said.

A mobile fleet that is currently running in long areas will be deployed to search for trucks parked illegally on the shoulder of the road.

"The mobile fleet is now running, now they are tidying up the trucks that were parked illegally on the shoulder of Yos Sudarso road. We are conducting a sweep with the Satpol PP and this will continue to patrol," he said.
