The Tegal Police Traffic Unit (Satlantas) recorded a decrease in the volume of vehicles entering the Trans Java toll road to Jakarta starting Wednesday, April 26 or D+3 Idulfitri 1444 Hijri.

"In the Tegal Police area, which will enter the KM279 Adiwarna Tegal toll road entrance starting 24 hours yesterday (Wednesday) there will be a decline," said Tegal Police Traffic Unit Head AKP Erwin Chan Siregar at the Tegal Toll Exit Integrated Post, Central Java, Thursday, April 27, confiscated by Antara.

Erwin said vehicles entering the Trans Java Toll Road via the entrance to the Adiwarna Tegal Toll Road on Monday, April 24, recorded 8,154 vehicles, then on Tuesday, April 25, a total of 8,054 vehicles, and Wednesday 7,261 vehicles were recorded. Data on vehicle volume on Thursday, he added, is still in process.

However, he ensured that the personnel of the Tegal Police Traffic Unit and relevant stakeholders would continue to be on standby in several strategic locations in the Tegal area during the 2023 Lebaran backflow period.

Erwin predicts that there will be an increase in the volume of vehicles to the Trans Java Toll Road in the last three days of the 2023 Eid holiday season, namely April 29-1 May 2023.

"The prediction of traffic flow will increase on Saturday, April 29, Sunday, April 30, and Monday, May 1 on the second backflow," he said.

Korlantas Polri extended traffic engineering with a one-way system from KM 414 Kalikangkung Toll Gate to KM 70 GT Cikampek until Thursday 27 April at 23.59 WIB.

Head of the Operations Section (Kabagops) of Korlantas Polri Kombes Pol. Eddy Djunaedi, in his statement in Jakarta, Wednesday, said that if during the extension period the traffic condition was seen to be under the provisions for three consecutive hours, then traffic engineering could be stopped or the implementation was completed.

"Meanwhile, if in the three-hour period before the expiration schedule there is still a significant increase in traffic volume towards Greater Jakarta, then it is possible to reschedule the schedule for the completion of one-way traffic engineering," said Eddy. The extension of the traffic engineering period due to the revival of traffic flow from the East (Trans Java) to the West (Jabodetabek) on a number of toll roads on Wednesday, April 26.
