JAKARTA - On the 5th day of Eid Al-Fitr 1443 Hijri, the volume of vehicles began to increase on Jalan Raya Kalimalang, Duren Sawit, East Jakarta, Wednesday, April 27, evening.
The Head of Homecoming Services for the Duren Sawit Police, Ipda Junaedi Efendi, said that the increase in vehicle volume today ranged from 25 to 30 percent from the previous 10 percent.
"Today, compared to yesterday, there is an increase. According to my estimation, today it has reached a 25-30 percent increase," Junaedi told reporters, Wednesday, April 27.
According to him, the increase in vehicle volume is dominated by travelers.
"Homecomers mostly start at night, on average after the Isha prayer, or after the Tarawih prayer. In the afternoon it is usually dominated by residents who live in Jakarta, especially those who come home from work," he said.
The road is an access for travelers, especially those who use two-wheeled vehicles to get to areas such as West Java, Central Java.
"This is indeed the dominant alternative route for travelers," he explained.
Despite the increase in the volume of vehicles, continued Junaedi, his party has not diverted the flow of traffic.

"Because the increase is still 25-30 percent, so it can still be overcome by regulating travelers so that we don't need to transfer them," he said.
However, if there is a severe traffic jam, then his party will divert the flow to reduce the density of vehicles on Jalan Raya Kalimalang.
"If there is heavy traffic flow or maybe we will turn left later, Pondok Bambu, continue to Jalan I Gusti Ngurah Rai later through to NCO and continue to Bekasi," he said.
Meanwhile, a homecomer named Taufik said he was happy this year he could go to his hometown, Pekalongan.
He and his partner rode a motorbike across Jalan Raya Kalimalang.
"If you want to go to Pekalongan, you usually take this road. If it takes at least 8 hours to get there," he admitted.
