The loading and unloading of expedition service trucks in the Tanah Abang Market area is increasingly prevalent and utilizes pedestrian sidewalk facilities. The loading and unloading of expedition goods often closes pedestrian access because the existing sidewalks are used as parking lots for expedition services.

A number of expedition service trucks carried out loading and unloading carelessly on Jalan Kebon Kacang XII, Jalan Moch Hasbi along with the Melati Reservoir, Jalan Jat Jatibaru Raya, Jalan KH Mas Mansyur and a number of other roads.

"In addition, there are just a lot of loading and unloading trucks that work arbitrarily on the sidewalks and roads. Even though the road has narrowed, Central Jakarta Transportation officers must take action so that they are deterrent," said Rahman, one of the road users, Thursday, January 11.

Atika (36) also complained about the same thing. The resident of Tanah Abang Subdistrict said that there have been loading and unloading trucks on the streets for a long time but their whereabouts are increasing. He suspects that there are people who have helped protect the expedition services so that there is no serious action.

"From the first, the Tanah Abang area was chaotic because the enforcement of Regional Regulations (Perda) was not firm. It must be taken seriously," he said.

Meanwhile, the Head of the Central Jakarta Transportation Sub-dept., Wildan Anwar, explained that his party and related agencies are currently continuing to control the Tanah Abang area.

"As we all know, the area is a trade area whose economic impact, activities and other impacts are very complex. We are still trying to carry out traffic order, parking compliance and loading and unloading locations are the focus of our current duties in the area," he said when confirmed by VOI, Thursday, January 11.

Meanwhile, regarding the legality of loading and unloading permits, Wildan said it was not the responsibility of the Central Jakarta Transportation Sub-dept.

"The permit is at PTSP," he said.
