JAKARTA - PT. Sungai Lake and Crossing Transportation (ASDP) Indonesia Ferry (Persero) Merak Branch temporarily closed the Merak-Bakauheni crossing service which was closed Saturday, December 31, starting at 16.00 WIB due to extreme weather.
PT ASDP Indonesia Ferry (Persero) Corporate Secretary Shelvy Arifin said based on weather information from the Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) at 16.00 WIB it was not conducive to shipping. In this regard, the Banten Province VIII Land Transportation Management Center as the authority asked ASDP to postpone ship departure until the weather was declared safe for sailing ships. Temporary service closure applies to regular services and express ships across Merak-Bakauheni.
It is estimated that in December 2022 the rainfall generally experienced an increase which resulted in high waves and strong winds on a number of crossing routes.
ASDP continues to carry out intensive coordination, especially with BMKG, the police/TNI, and port authorities every time before the ferry makes its voyage safe and smooth to its destination. Management actively and continuously conveys information to service users if there is delays in services arising due to extreme weather. ASDP continues to appeal to all ferry service users, especially the busiest track, Merak-Bakauheni, to remain careful when crossing, be aware of bad weather, and ensure that stamina and vehicle conditions stay healthy and prime.
"We hope the weather returns to normal so that the Merak-Bakauheni ferry cruise runs smoothly," he said as quoted by ANTARA.
