CIREBON - The Cirebon City Police Traffic Unit, West Java, said thousands of vehicles from Java to Jakarta began crossing the arterial route in its area on backflow or during D+2 Lebaran 2024.
KBO Satlantas Cirebon City Police Ipda Rizwan in Cirebon, Friday said that so far there have been around five thousand vehicles passing by and that number could increase until tonight.
"Currently, we have received notes from the Transportation Service, there are around five thousand vehicles of two-wheeled travelers, especially heading to Jakarta," he said as quoted by ANTARA, Friday, April 12.
The movement of travelers traveling back to Jakarta has occurred since Thursday (11/4), but the number has not been so significant.

"Meanwhile, if the peak is later there will be around 50 thousand vehicles moving in the arterial route. Therefore, the current condition is still relatively normal," he said.
Rizwan explained that it is estimated that the majority of travelers choose to return to the Jakarta area during this period of time, because the Eid al-Fitr 1445 Hijri will end on Monday (15/4).
