The police have alerted a team of sweeping the Trans Java Toll Road for the Jakarta Cikampek (Japek) section to help vehicles strike or break down, so as not to interfere with the smooth flow of traffic for Eid al-Fitr 2024 homecoming.

Head of Karawang Police Traffic Unit AKP Lucky Martono said the investigation consisted of members of the West Java Police Satlantas personnel, Karawang Police, and several assistances from the Korlantas Police Headquarters.

"This team will always be on standby, conducting patrols. Then if there are obstacles found, then immediately move to the shoulder of the road, then the toll road authority will be taken over," he said while monitoring from the Ketupat Lodayares Operations Security Post area KM 57 reported by ANTARA, Thursday, April 4. Kasat Then instructing officers in the field needs to increase vigilance from Saturday (4/4) or D-4 to D-2 Lebaran which is estimated to be the peak of homecoming flow.

Meanwhile, based on data from Jasa Marga, at GT Cikampek Utama there are 259 thousand in and out of Jakarta or an increase of 66.8 percent on the homecoming flow, an increase when compared to normal days.

This increase in the volume of vehicles coming in and out is what, according to him, needs to be watched out for optimally by officers in the field, because if there are slight obstacles, the impact will be widespread. "We still urge you to pay attention to information about the flow of homecoming. Driving things that are no less important is to keep vehicle safety and security first, and also don't forget to maintain health conditions," he said.
