JAKARTA - National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo directly monitors the current situation of the 2023 Eid homecoming flow. Monitoring is carried out by air by helicopter.
The National Police Chief directly observed the traffic flow of Lebaran homecoming. Starting from toll roads or arterial roads.
The National Police Chief monitors the areas of Jakarta, Cikampek, Cirebon, Bandung, and the surrounding areas, as reported by Antara, Saturday, April 15.
Listyo explained that this review was to find out directly whether there had been an increase in the volume of travelers' vehicles. He also monitors points prone to traffic jams when the homecoming flow takes place.
The Chief of Police's air review is also a commitment to following up on instructions from the President of the Republic of Indonesia Joko Widodo (Jokowi) to realize the security of the 2023 Eid homecoming and return flow much better than the previous year.
Previously, Listyo ensured that the National Police continued to finalize readiness and evaluate in order to secure the flow of homecoming and return to Lebaran 2023.
The readiness that continues to be discussed and carried out, he said, is related to the implementation of traffic engineering in the form of contraflow, one way, to odd-even during the 2023 Eid homecoming.
"Although at the peak of the flow, there will definitely be an increase in the flow which causes congestion conditions because the road capacity is filled with a larger volume than usual, so traffic engineering is needed," Listyo said after providing basic food assistance at the PP Persis Office as reported by Antara, Saturday, April 15.
The traffic engineering strategy on the toll road, he said, needs to be prepared so that this year's homecoming trip can be better, safer, and smoother. Moreover, this year the number of travelers is predicted to experience an increase.
"We are all doing this so that the homecoming travel process can really be managed properly and the community can reach the homecoming destination smoothly and also hope that we are all safe," he said.
Listyo also gave an appeal to all people who travel back and forth to follow all the rules to ensure the realization of security and comfort.
