JABAR - The surge in traffic flow occurred on the southern route of West Java (Jabar) across Ciamis Regency on D-5 Lebaran 2022. This condition has occurred since D-7 and is predicted to peak on April 29 and 30 2022.
"Based on our records on D-7 and D-6 yesterday, there has been an increase," said Acting Head of the Ciamis Regency Transportation Service, Achmad Yani, while monitoring the use of the area traffic control system (ATCS) in Ciamis Regency, Wednesday 27 April.
He said the results of the calculation of the flow of vehicles from west to east or Bandung to Central Java on D-7 were 57 thousand vehicles.
When compared with the same momentum in the previous year, he said, there was an increase of 50 percent, which was dominated by two-wheeled vehicles passing through the Ciamis route. "So indeed some people have gone home earlier," he said, quoting Antara.
If there is a traffic density on the Ciamis national road, he said, it will be diverted to alternative routes such as Cimaragas Road, Ciamis South Ring Road, Panumbangan-Panjalu Road and Cisaga Road.
The alternative road, he said, was in good condition, also equipped with signs that would provide comfort and safety for road users.
"If there is traffic engineering, we are ready to direct travelers to the alternative route," he said, as reported by Antara.
Deputy Governor of West Java, Uu Ruzhanul Ulum, who observed the flow of vehicle traffic in Ciamis, said he predicted that there were tens of millions of homecomers who came to the West Java region during the Eid al-Fitr 1443 Hijri homecoming season.
"According to our estimation, there will be 16 million people who will enter the West Java area during the homecoming period, then 9 million people will leave," he said.
