BANDUNG - Bandung Regent, Dadang Supriatna, said congestion in the Nagreg area is not as bad as in previous years due to the presence of new infrastructure built by the government.

According to him, in previous years the congestion in Nagreg was quite severe. Moreover, when there is no construction of the Nagreg ring.

"In the past, the traffic jam was severe, but now there is a high increase in going home but it is still under control", said Dadang at the Cikaledong Nagreg Security Post, Bandung Regency, West Java, Antara, Sunday, May 1.

Dadang said the infrastructure development carried out by the government can reduce the burden on arterial routes, especially on the southern route. So, he said, the homecoming flow that was experiencing congestion could be controlled.

"This is proof that the government is paying attention to our infrastructure", he said.

Dadang also mentioned that traffic jams that are prone to occur after Eid are on the route to Ciwidey, Bandung Regency. He estimates that many people will travel to fill the Eid holiday.

He also hopes that the central government can prepare further steps to anticipate traffic jams that often occur on tourist routes.

"All (the flow of homecoming) is under control, except for Ciwidey. Ciwidey is a tourist location where the traffic congestion is quite high, as well as those heading to Cidaun", he said.

The Ministry of Transportation stated that the peak of the homecoming flow on the southern route had been exceeded. On H-2 Lebaran 2022, there were as many as 128 thousand vehicles that passed in Nagreg.

While on H-1, the flow of going home in the Nagreg area seemed quieter than the previous days.
