The Head of the Public Relations Division of the National Police, Inspector General Dedi Prasetyo, said that there were seven steps being implemented. The first is to do traffic engineering in the form of a one-way or one-way system.
"First, the application of traffic engineering in the form of a one-way system starting from KM 414 or Kalikangkung Toll Gate to KM 70 Cikampek Utama Toll Gate," said Dedi in a written statement, Wednesday, May 4.
It is planned that the implementation of the one-way system will be carried out on GT Kalinkangkung KM 414 to Cikampek Toll Road KM 47 from Friday, May 6 from 14.00 WIB to 24.00 WIB. However, this depends on the level of traffic density.
In addition, this one way system will be continued with the application of contra flow up to the KM 28.5 Cikampek Toll Road.
"Traffic Engineering also applies and is situational at the peak of the flow which is predicted on Saturday, May 7 and Sunday, May 8, 2022," said Dedi.
The second step, the National Police will also socialize alternative routes to Bandung from Jakarta during the implementation of one way. Here is the route prepared:
Jagorawi – Puncak – Cisarua – Cipanas – Cianjur – Sukaluyu – Cipatat – Padalarang – Bandung. Jagorawi – Cibubur – Cileungsi – Jonggol – Cianjur – Padalarang – Bandung.

Jagorawi – Sukabumi – Cianjur – Padalarang – Bandung.Furthermore, the public is asked to use alternative routes and not wait for the completion of the one-way system. The goal is to avoid overcrowding.
The fourth step, the National Police with relevant stakeholders implement rest area management, namely the Rest Area Management System (RAMS) to inform drivers of parking capacity before entering the rest area.
"Fifth, urge the public not to stop at the shoulder of the road if they cannot rest in the rest area. It is hoped that they can take advantage of the rest area in the nearest city by exiting first at the nearest toll gate," said Dedi.
