YOGYAKARTA - Ahead of the Lebaran homecoming season, the volume of vehicles on toll roads usually increases sharply. To reduce traffic density, the government together with the police have prepared a number of traffic engineering, such as one way, odd even, and contraflow on several major toll roads. So when is the contraflow and one way schedule for Lebaran homecoming 2026? Check out below.

For people who plan to go home using a private car, knowing the schedule for implementing traffic engineering is important so that the journey is smoother. By understanding the time and location of its implementation, drivers can adjust the departure time and prepare alternative routes if necessary.

In general, traffic arrangements during Eid are divided into two main periods, namely the homecoming and return flow. Through the Ministry of Transportation together with the Ministry of Public Works and Korlantas Polri, the Government officially issued a Joint Decree (SKB) regarding traffic arrangements and crossings during the 2026 Eid homecoming and return flow periods.

The one-way system is a one-way traffic arrangement on the toll road. When implemented, all toll lanes are focused on vehicles moving in a certain direction.
