SLEMAN - The Sleman Police, Yogyakarta Special Region (DIY), has anticipated congestion and the accumulation of vehicles on the roads leading to tourist attractions during the Eid 2022 holiday. A number of traffic engineering will be carried out at points that have the potential to cause traffic congestion. .
"Our main monitoring is the Yogya-Solo Road in the Prambanan Temple area and the main road to the Kaliurang tourist attraction," said Sleman Police Chief AKBP Achmad Imam Rifai in Sleman, Wednesday 27 April.
According to him, specifically on Jalan Yogya-Solo in the Prambanan Temple area, apart from being an access point to the Prambanan Temple tourist attraction, the area is also the entrance for travelers to Sleman Regency or DIY from the east.
"Moreover, with the Semarang-Solo toll road, there is a possibility for travelers to enter Yogyakarta via Solo, so there is a potential for traffic jams to occur in the Prambanan area, which borders Klaten Regency, Central Java," he said, as reported by Antara.
Achmad said that his party had also coordinated with the Klaten Police to anticipate traffic congestion in the Prambanan Sleman and Prambanan Klaten areas. "Anticipate this traffic jam during the homecoming flow, the tourist flow to Prambanan Temple, and the return flow later," he said.
He said that his party had also prepared alternative routes to ease congestion in the border areas, namely in Tempel and Prambanan.
"The alternative route, namely from Tempel-Turi-Pakem-Cangkringan-Prambanan and vice versa is also the Prambanan-Piyungan Bantul route," he said.
He said that his party had also prepared traffic engineering management in the Kaliurang tourist area which is a tourist destination visited by many tourists during holidays.
"Traffic engineering on Jalan Kaliurang is applied if there is a surge in visits during the Lebaran holiday. When there is an extraordinary increase in tourist visitors in Kaliurang, one way will be applied between 09.00 WIB and 17.00 WIB," he said.
The engineering of the one road, namely from the East-Kaliurang retribution collection point (TPR) to the top and at the intersection of the four prawn monuments, the vehicles were broken down.
"Tourists who want to go to Tlogoputri take the right direction towards Astomulyo Street, while take the left for tourists who want to go to the Suraloka zoo. From Astomulyo Street, tourists can also be directed to Kaliurang Park, Japanese Cave, and the Viewpoint," he said.
The return flow of Kaliurang tourists will be directed one way through Boyong Street in the West-Kaliurang TPR towards Yogyakarta.
"This technique will be applied if there is a severe traffic jam during the Eid holiday on May 3-8, 2022. This policy looks at the situation on the ground," he said.
