JAKARTA – The police are implementing a contraflow scheme from the Jakarta-Cikampek (Japek) toll road section KM 3+500 to the Cibitung Toll Gate (GT) KM 25. This scheme is implemented to relieve congestion on arterial roads in the city and Bekasi Regency.
"Yes, since 16:35 WIB, the contraflow scheme has been implemented from KM 3+500 to GT Cibutung," said Traffic Director of Polda Metro Jaya Kombes Sambodo Purnomo Yogo to VOI, Saturday, May 7.
The application of this contraflow scheme aims to relieve congestion at several arterial road points, one of which is on Jalan Kalimalang.
Previously, the arterial road had a long traffic jam. The reason is none other than the implementation of the one way scheme.
With the implementation of contraflow, the one way scheme that was previously enforced ended. Drivers heading east from Jakarta can cross the toll road.
"To relax and dilute congestion in the arteries of Bekasi City and Bekasi Regency," said Sambodo.
Previously, the density of vehicles during the return flow of Lebaran 2022 occurred on the Kalimalang arterial route, Bekasi. This vehicle density was also due to the many activities of the surrounding community. However, the traffic flow is said to still be able to move.
In fact, this density condition is predicted to continue until the afternoon. Thus, additional personnel will be carried out to reduce the density.
"Indeed, the volume of vehicles has increased," said Beksi Police Chief Kombes Hengki.
