JAKARTA - The Directorate of Traffic (Ditlantas) of Metro Jaya Police mapped 16 "rat roads" ahead of the enactment of the homecoming ban policy on May 6-17.
"There are about 16 'rat roads' in the DKI Jakarta area and buffers," said Metro Jaya Police Traffic Director Kombes Sambodo Purnomo Yogo at Satpas SIM Daan Mogot, West Jakarta, quoted by Antara, Tuesday, April 13.
Sambodo gives examples of some "rat tracks" or alternative roads that are often used by travelers to break the homecoming ban.
"For example, such as Pebayuran in Karawang, then there is a bridge that goes towards Tanjung Pura Karawang, then Cibarusa which is towards Cianjur, then other sections of the line that go in the direction of Tangerang to Banten," he said.
Reflecting on the experience of sealing in previous years, Ditlantas Polda Metro Jaya will also prepare security posts on the route.
"That's why we take care of the 'rat road'," he said.
Here are eight sealing points that will be applied by the ranks of the Ditlantas Polda Metro Jaya in the ban on Eid al-Fitr 2021 homecoming:
There are two toll roads:
Cikampek Toll Road
Merak Toll Road
There are three non-toll arterial roads:
Hope Beautiful Bekasi City
Jati Uwung Tangerang City
Kedung Waringin Bekasi Regency
There are three bus terminals:
Pulogebang
Rambutan Village
Kalideres
Previously, the Ministry of Transportation (Kemenhub) issued Ministerial Regulation (PM) Number 13 of 2021 on Transportation Control during the Eid al-Fitr period of 1442 H in order to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
"Transportation control is carried out through a ban on the use or operation of transportation facilities for all modes of transportation, namely land, sea, air, and railway modes, starting on May 6-17, 2021," said Ministry of Transportation Spokeswoman Adita Irawati.
