Minister of Transportation (Menhub) Budi Karya Sumadi said the government would prohibit the mobility of cars or trucks transporting goods during the 2023 Eid homecoming flow.
According to Budi, the road capacity will decrease if there are still three-axis goods cars passing by. So, it will affect the speed of the vehicle.
"Therefore, we will announce any days that are not allowed to use the designated streets," he said at a press conference at the State Palace, quoted from the Presidential Secretariat, Friday, March 24.
However, Budi said, there were several exceptions for cars transporting goods. For example, cars transporting fuel oil (BBM).
"What is except for BBM, BBG, livestock, fertilizer, delivery of money, basic commodities including vegetables for homecoming motorbikes or return," he said.
Furthermore, Budi said the government would also conduct an assessment of the car carrying this item. If it overloads, said Budi, it will prohibit operating. Given that the truck overloaded, the speed would slow down.
"And we will assess if he overloads, then he can't walk. Why do we do that, if the truck overloads, the speed is less than 60 km. Then the journey slows down," he explained.
