Jasa Marga noted that the flow of traffic out of Jakarta, Bogor, Tangerang and Bekasi (Jabotabek) through the Trans Java Toll Road was still quite high until D+2 Idul Fitri 1445 Hijriah.
"We recorded that the volume of simultaneous traffic leaving the Jabotabek area was 396,318 vehicles on 10-11 April 2024," said Jasa Marga Department of Marketing and Communication Head Faiza Riani in Brebes, Friday, April 12, as reported by Antara.
Traffic flow is still dominated towards the east of Trans Java via the Cikampek Utama Toll Gate and towards Bandung through the Kalihurip Utama Toll Gate (GT) at 56.1 percent.
"We noted that vehicles passing through GT Cikampek Utama reached 127,425 vehicles, an increase of up to 146.2 percent of normal traffic," he said.
In addition, a significant increase in traffic flow is also seen for those leading to Bandung (West Java) through the Kalihurip Utama GT. Namely as many as 94,900 vehicles, an increase of 68.9 percent compared to normal traffic.
Faiza appealed to people who are currently still in their hometowns to arrange their travel time back to Jabotabek.
He said the return flow period had a fairly short number of days when compared to the homecoming flow.
This year, the peak of backflow is predicted to fall on Monday, April 15, 2024. To avoid long queues, people are advised to avoid traveling at their favorite times, namely morning and evening.

"We urge the public to travel back to Jabotabek early before the predicted time becomes the peak of backflow or for those who have time lag," he said.

The tariff discount is for the Trans Java Toll Road from Semarang (Central Java) to Jakarta, only for the origin of GT Kalikangkung to GT Cikampek Utama.
