JAKARTA - Coordinating Minister for Regional Infrastructure and Development Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono ordered the Ministry of Public Works (PU) to accelerate the repair of national and provincial roads damaged by travelers to cross the road.

"Even if there is damage that can slow down traffic, let alone accidents, I will send a team from the Ministry of Public Works to immediately repair the road," Agus said at the Halim Perdanakusuma Air Base complex, East Jakarta, quoted by Antara, Saturday, April 23.

According to the man who is familiarly called AHY, road repairs are a must because most travelers this year will use land routes.

With the appropriate asphalt conditions, he believes the potential for accidents on the homecoming route will be smaller.

However, AHY did not explain in detail the damaged homecoming lane point and is still under repair.

Not only road repairs, AHY also said that the Government would lower toll rates by 20 percent on several main routes across Java and Sumatra Island.

"The reduction in toll road rates by 20 percent in 17 segments, especially in Trans Java and Transsumatra will be implemented," explained AHY.

AHY said that the reduction in toll rates was not only at the time of homecoming, but also in the backflow.

With these efforts, AHY hopes that the community can carry out their homecoming safely and comfortably.
