JAKARTA - A total of 8,807 passengers on 473 buses were recorded to return to Jakarta via the Kampung Rambutan Bus Terminal, East Jakarta on D+5 Lebaran 2022 or Saturday 7 May.
Head of Kampung Rambutan Bus Terminal, Yulza Ramadhoni, said that this figure was the highest number of backflows during Eid 2022.
"It was most likely yesterday that the peak [backflow] was on May 7 [D+5] around 8 thousand passengers. This means that yesterday maybe the peak of the return flow was at the Kampung Rambutan Bus Terminal," he said, as reported by Antara.
Yulza said the trend of returning passengers to Jakarta has continued to increase since D+2 Lebaran or Wednesday May 4, at which time there were 3,862 passengers arriving at the Kampung Rambutan Bus Terminal using 326 buses.
Furthermore, on D+3 or Thursday 5 May, there were 5,272 passengers arriving by 368 buses. Then on D+3 or Friday May 6th, there were 7,619 passengers arriving by 419 buses, until Saturday, May 7th or D+4 there were 8,807 passengers arriving by bus.
Passenger arrivals are dominated by the east, starting from West Java and Central Java.
Yulza said that with the high arrivals of passengers on Saturday, May 7, the peak of the return flow at the Kampung Rambutan Bus Terminal may have passed. Especially because office activities will also start on Monday 9 May tomorrow.
The number of homecomers until D+6 or Saturday May 7 continued to decline, where there were only 362 passengers who departed using 88 buses. The number also continues to decrease compared to the previous day on D+5 or Friday, May 6, as many as 676 passengers using 94 buses.
"Departures have dropped once. Passengers are dominated by those who arrive. Those who depart are very small," said Yulza.
