JAKARTA - Motorized Vehicle Free Day (HBKB) or "Car Free Day" (CFD) on Jalan Pemuda, Rawamangun, East Jakarta, on Sunday, July 26th is canceled. The reason is that there are local residents infected with COVID-19

"In accordance with the direction of the leadership, temporarily (CFD) is abolished," said Head of Control and Operations for East Jakarta Transportation Sub-dept. Riky Erwinda, reported by Antara.

The reason for the exclusion of CFD at that location was because a number of residents in Jati Kelurahan had tested positive for COVID-19. "Because there are several RWs in the red zone," he said.

However, some people living in the vicinity of Jalan Pemuda admitted that they did not know if the CFD was eliminated this time.

"It has only been held two times. There has been no notification at all," said the cyclist, Indra (30).

Residents have arrived at 05.30 WIB to the location by bicycle or on foot. There were no officers in the uniforms of the Dishub or Satpol PP at the location.

Residents who have come to Jalan Pemuda choose to exercise in the Velodrome area, which is a bicycle arena and a park.

Jalan Raya Pemuda is one of the CFD locations as an alternative to Jalan Sudirman-Thamrin, Central Jakarta, which was eliminated during the COVID-19 pandemic.
