The Central Jakarta Metro Police Traffic Unit (Satlantas) has begun to open a concrete MCB blockade blocking Jalan Medan Merdeka Barat, Gambir District, Central Jakarta on Tuesday, November 7, afternoon.

The process of opening the blockade was carried out using a forklift tool. One by one the concrete measuring 2x1 meters was lifted with a tool and moved to the side of Jalan Medan Merdeka Barat.

"The opening of the lane segment starts at 17.30 WIB," said one of the Central Jakarta Metro Police traffic police.

Although there is only one route from the Presidential Palace towards the HI Roundabout where the concrete blockade is opened, the police estimate that the two lines of Medan Merdeka Barat Street can be accessed around 18.00 WIB.

"All roads have been opened," he said.

The traffic flow from the direction of HI to Harmoni was diverted to Budi Kemuliaan and Merdeka Selatan. Traffic from Budi Kemuliaan to Merdeka Barat was diverted to Merdeka Selatan. Traffic from the direction of South Merdeka to Merdeka Barat was diverted to Jalan Budi Kemuliaan.
