JAKARTA - Traffic to the Jakarta International Stadium (JIS) area will be limited during the 2022 Eid prayer. This step is taken by the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency to reduce vehicle density.

Head of the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency, Syafrin Liputo, explained that the traffic restrictions are planned to be implemented from 04.00 to 09.00 WIB. Restrictions are carried out on Jalan Sunter Permai Raya and Jalan Danau Sunter Barat.

He explained that the officers excluded restrictions for the Eid prayer congregation and residents living around the JIS area.

The arrangement covers the arrival and return routes at JIS. In addition, it also regulates the circulation of vehicles entering and leaving and lowering and raising passengers for public transportation.

"People don't need to worry and be confused, we have prepared officers for parking arrangements and drop offs, both inside the stadium area, the ITF parking area, and the feeder parking bag," said Syafrin.

Meanwhile, for the circulation of vehicles entering the JIS area, the public can enter through the West Gate and East Gate, then be directed to enter the parking area within the stadium. If parking in the stadium is full, be directed to East Parking area 1 and 2.

Likewise, the circulation of vehicles leaving after Eid prayers, can be through the West Door, South Door, and East Door.

There are five parking pockets that can be used near JIS, namely RSPI Soelianti Saroso, Univ. 17 August, Graha YKI, D'Arcici, and Ruko Sunter Nirwana.

It also provides five shuttle buses from the parking lot to JIS or vice versa.

Although a parking area is provided, the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government still advises people to use public transportation, both conventional and online.

"Follow the directions of the officers in the field and please do not park your vehicle in any place for a smooth journey together," said Syafrin.
