D-7 Lebaran, Tangerang-Merak Toll Road Traffic Is Crowded Smoothly

SERANG - Traffic conditions on the Tangerang - Merak Toll Road were observed to be in smooth condition on H-7 Eid 2022, today.

Based on Antara's observation, Monday, April 25. Traffic conditions are monitored smoothly starting from the Cikupa Toll Gate.

The current condition then continued until the Merak Toll Gate.

Repairs to the toll bridge in the Ciujung area have also been completed, so as not to cause traffic congestion.

However, heavy vehicles such as container trucks can still be seen crossing the Tangerang-Merak Toll Road. Similar conditions can also be seen towards Jakarta.

Previously, Astra Infra Group explained a number of traffic density points on several toll roads that need to be watched out for when going home for Eid this year.

Chief Astra Infra Solutions Ega N Bogab said that there are several density points that need to be watched out for during Lebaran Homecoming. One of them is the Tangerang-Merak Toll Road, where congestion will occur at the Merak Toll Gate this is because this toll gate is the final destination of the toll road when travelers will cross to Sumatra Island.

According to Ega, the spike at the Merak Toll Gate is not only due to the toll gate, but because Astra Infra must connect with the crossing port for travelers to Sumatra Island.

Thus, Astra Infra together with ASDP in the Merak area have really prepared a scenario so that traffic there will continue to flow.

In addition to coordination, Astra Infra also engineered transaction services by adding several transaction lanes, and of course there were additional mobile readers for transactions outside the existing lanes.
