Regarding the readiness of the toll road, he said, it will be opened functionally up to Klaten.

"Meanwhile, the toll exit is via Ngawen or in Karanganom," he said.

He said the functional toll road along approximately 22.3 km will take effect from Friday (5/4) at 06.00-17.00 WIB.

In addition, security and service posts will also be established at the entrance and exit of the functional toll road.

"It functions one route for homecoming from Asolole Klaten. This will take effect on April 5-11. It will open at 06.00-17.00 WIB," he said.

He said the opening of the functional toll road was carried out on homecoming and backflow.

"The time is 06.00-17.00 WIB, April 12-15. This is situational, we will see the progress of the travelers," he said.
