PT Jasamarga Transjawa Tol (JTT) situationally diverts the flow of Jakarta-Cikampek toll road traffic out at KM 68 to Kalihurip Toll Gate (GT) to anticipate a surge in vehicle volume during Eid al-Fitr 1445 Hijri. "This step was taken at the discretion of the Police, the traffic of the Jakarta-Cikampek toll road towards Cikampek was diverted out of KM 68 GT Kalihurip situationally," said Vice President (VP) Corporate Secretary and Legal PT Jasamarga Transjawa Toll Ria Marlinda Paallo in a written statement in Pekalongan, Antara, Sunday, April 14. This flow diversion was carried out situationally at 08.45 WIB to anticipate a surge in the volume of vehicle traffic towards Cikampek on the Jakarta-Cikampek toll road. "The implementation of open-close traffic engineering is carried out to unravel the density that occurs at the exit access of KM 72 GT Cikampek "Jakarta-Cikampek toll road," he said. He appealed to all Trans Java toll road users to anticipate travel, ensure that the vehicle is in prime condition, the electronic money balance is sufficient. Then make sure to have filled the fuel before starting the trip and bring supplies to avoid overcrowding at rest areas. "Always be careful when driving, obey signs and follow directions from officers in the field," he said. Previously, the Head of the Traffic Corps (Kakorlantas) of the National Police, Inspector General Pol Aan Suhanan, asked motorists who carried out the backflow of Eid al-Fitr 1445 Hijri to maintain tolerance while driving on the highway. "We ask motorists to maintain tolerance and respect fellow motorists," said Inspector General of Police Aan Suhanan in Semarang, Saturday.

He said the person who went home must have been tired while driving because of the trips and activities carried out in his hometown during the holidays. "People coming back from this village have less money and don't be temperamental on the streets," he said.
