GARUT - The Garut Police Traffic Unit (Satlantas) has alerted a number of personnel on the Garut-Bandung main route to anticipate the occurrence of traffic congestion at the end of the school holiday season.
"Today we are alerting all traffic personnel in two lanes to anticipate the excitement of vehicles so that there is no overcrowding, we estimate the peak density will occur on Sunday (17 July)," said KBO Satlantas Garut Police Iptu Suarna while securing the main route in Garut Regency, West Java, Friday 15 July.
He said that Garut Police Traffic Unit personnel had been alerted on the main Bandung-Garut route, namely the Limbangan-Malangbong line and the Kadungora-Leles route.
This route, he said, is often crowded with two- and four-wheeled vehicles, especially during the holiday season, as before during the Eid al-Adha holiday, the flow of vehicles was quite dense.
If there is congestion, the staff will apply a one-way route to drain vehicles from Garut to Bandung.
"Almost every day we do a 'one way' CB (way of action) to drain vehicles, both heading to Bandung and Tasikmalaya," he said.
He conveyed that the traffic density at the end of the school holiday is predicted to occur on July 16-17, because the next day school activities will resume.
If at the peak there will be congestion, he said, his staff is ready to take quick action, one of which is by imposing a one-way lane system.
"We ask the public when the 'one way' is being carried out to be patient, because the steps we are taking are for the common good," he said, according to Antara.
Regarding the current condition of traffic flow, said Suarna, it was observed that it was crowded smoothly on the Kadungora-Leles route, as well as on Limbangan-Malangbong.
"Today, the traffic flow conditions on the Kadungora-Leles and Limbangan-Malangbong routes are smooth," he concluded.
