JAKARTA - The police have enforced the closure of Jalan Puncak-Gadog from the direction of Jakarta to Puncak from 07.15 WIB to 12.00 WIB.

This was done by the Police in order to reduce the potential for vehicle density in the Puncak area.

"We played the 'one way' pattern at 07.15, it was estimated that it would arrive at 12.00 WIB," said Head of the Traffic Unit of the Bogor Police, AKP Dicky Anggi Pranata, quoted from Antara, Saturday.

The road closure was carried out right at the Gadog intersection so that cars heading from the Jagorawi and Bogor City toll exits could not enter the Puncak area.

At 07.50 WIB, the traffic jam had occurred until the toll gate. Meanwhile, from the direction of Bogor City, the traffic jam is estimated to have reached Ciawi Market.

Later, after 12.00, the Police will close the lane from the opposite direction.

Dicky hopes that tourists who want to visit the Puncak area can adjust the departure time to the "one way" schedule that has been set.

Until now, Dicky saw no increase in the number of vehicles compared to the previous day.

Although there has not been a spike in the number of vehicles, Dicky and his staff are still monitoring to ensure traffic flow in the Puncak area is under control.
