SURABAYA - The Surabaya-Bojonegoro line, East Java, was observed to be relatively smooth or there was no severe traffic jam on H-2 Lebaran 2022.

"Alhamdulillah, the journey was smooth from Surabaya to Bojonegoro," said Mustofirin, a traveler to Bojonegoro, quoted by Antara, Saturday, April 30.

According to him, there are no traffic jams along the Bojonegoro-Surabaya highway. Four or two-wheeled vehicles drive in an orderly manner so as not to cause congestion.

However, he continued, there were several points where traffic was heavy in the late afternoon and evening, in Sitting Sampeyan, Gresik and entering the city area in Lamongan Regency and Babat Market, Lamongan.

Another traveler, Andik, said the same thing. He said that there had been traffic congestion at the railroad crossing on the west side of the Lamongan Terminal, and the east side of the train station or the west side of the Surajaya Lamongan Stadium.

"But it was only for a moment, after that it was smooth," Andik said.

The Head of the Lamongan Regency Transportation Service, Heru Widi, previously said that his party had prepared alternative routes for the 2022 homecoming flow, in anticipation of congestion in the north coast road area (pantura) in the local area.

Several alternative routes have been prepared to minimize congestion from Surabaya to Babat, namely through Deket Kulon to Sukodadi.

After that, from the Ngimbang/Jombang area to Bojonegoro via Karang Asem to Jalan Sapi Statue, then from Surabaya to Bojonegoro Jombang via Jalan Gotong Royong, and the direction from Ngimbang/Jombang to Surabaya via Jalan Babat to Lamongan.

In addition, there is a regulation on operational restrictions on goods transportation, which refers to the Circular (SE) of the Minister of Transportation Number 45 of 2022. For homecoming flows, the Transportation Agency will limit the transportation of goods from April 28 to May 1, 2022, and return flows from 6 until May 9, 2022.
