JAKARTA - West Java Regional Police Chief Inspector General Pol Suntana said from the current data that many people have returned to Jakarta and the Greater Jakarta area, it is hoped that this will reduce the burden on May 6-8.

"Based on existing data, I have seen that some people from the Central Java and Bandung areas have returned to Jakarta," said Suntana, quoted by Antara, Thursday, May 5.

Inspector General Suntana said that with the large number of people who had returned to Jakarta and the Greater Jakarta area, it was hoped that on 6-8 May 2022 the traffic flow could be reduced.

Because on that date, Suntana continued, it is predicted to be the peak of the return flow for Lebaran 2022, especially vehicles that lead to Jakarta through their jurisdiction.

Suntana said, on Thursday, May 5, many people had also returned early, according to the government's recommendation, namely to return early.

"The government has advised to return early, and I can see from the helicopter that the traffic flow on the toll roads and the left and right arteries is still safe," he said.

Suntana hopes that people who will return to Jakarta and Jabodetabek will continue to obey traffic rules, so that they can safely arrive at their destination.

In addition, he hopes that during this return flow it can run smoothly like the homecoming flow yesterday, although there is indeed a bit of congestion, the vehicle can still rotate.

"The government advises not to go home at the peak of the homecoming flow and it is obeyed, because even though there is congestion, it is not too severe. We want the backflow to also happen like the homecoming flow," he said.
