JAKARTA - Ahead of the homecoming season, the DKI Jakarta Transportation Service has mapped a number of points that are usually shadow terminals in the capital by a number of bus fleets.

Head of the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency's Road Transportation Division, Yayat Sudrajat, said that his party would intensify the supervision and control of the shadow terminal.

"Against the shadow terminal, patrols will be carried out. The control will be carried out by the ranks of transportation, service and service units according to their operational areas," Yayat said in a short message, Wednesday, April 20.

Dishub will carry out patrols around. If it finds a bus that is illegally loading passengers at the shadow terminal location, the DKI Transportation Agency will carry out control.

"A control patrol is carried out so that vehicles enter the terminal according to what is listed on the surveillance card," Yayat said.

"Usually patrols are carried out by mobile because they are not only supervised by one shadow terminal. In Jakarta, there are several places where illegal passengers can board, not included in the provisions of the 7 terminals that have been prepared," he added.

Furthermore, on this year's Eid, the DKI Provincial Government opened four interprovincial intercity bus terminals (AKAP) for this year's Lebaran homecoming service. This was conveyed separately by the Head of the DKI Transportation Agency, Syafrin Liputo.

"For Jakarta, we have prepared four inter-provincial inter-city terminals, namely Pulogebang Terminal, Kampung Rambutan Terminal, Kalideres Terminal, and Tanjung Priok Terminal," said Syafrin at DKI City Hall, Monday, April 11.

Syafrin said that his party has also prepared three additional terminals to anticipate the surge of travelers returning to their hometowns.

The three additional terminals are located in South Jakarta, West Jakarta and North Jakarta, namely Lebak Bulus Terminal, Grogol Terminal, and Muara Angke Terminal.

"We have also prepared three assistance terminals to anticipate the surge in passengers as it is known that the Minister of Transportation has announced that there are approximately 13 million residents who will return home from the Jabodetabek area," explained Syafrin.
