JAKARTA - PT Pelabuhan Indonesia (Persero) or Pelindo ensures that all terminals it manages are ready to serve the backflow of Lebaran 2023. In anticipation of queues, Pelindo asked for logistics transportation from Sumatra via Panjang Harbor to Java.
Group Head of the Corporate Secretariat Ali Mulyono said Pelindo opened two ports to anticipate the backflow of Lebaran 2023.
The two ports that are opened are Panjang Port in Lampung and Ciwandan and Indah Kiat Ports in Banten.
"For the implementation of services at Panjang Port on backflow, it is hoped that there will be no queues of logistics transport vehicles. We encourage logistics vehicles when they want to return to Java Island through Panjang Port," he said in an official statement written Wednesday, April 26.
Ali said, Pelindo has also prepared 2 parking areas, namely the 005 D field with an area of 13,652 square meters for logistics transport vehicles and 005 E field with an area of 8,817 square meters specifically for two-wheeled vehicles, which can accommodate a total of 2,150 units of travelers.
"Especially for two wheels, the service will be carried out on 29-30 April 2023 (D+6 and D+7) using the Dobonsolo Ship on the Panjang-Ciwandan route," he said.
Based on estimates from the Ministry of Transportation (Kemenhub), the peak traffic density of sea transportation will occur since yesterday, Tuesday, April 25.
Ali ensured that all Pelindo passenger ports were supported by the existence of the Lebaran Transportation Post which functions as a monitoring and coordination center.
Posko itu untuk memantau kondisi keamanan dan keselamatan pada periode arus mudik dan arus balik lebaran, jelasnya.
Furthermore, Ali explained that the Lebaran Transportation Post will continue to monitor all passenger terminals from April 7 to May 8, 2023 and operate for 24 hours.
"To ensure that passengers remain safe, comfortable, healthy and smooth, during the 2023 Eidback flow, Pelindo also prepares supporting facilities such as passenger waiting room, prayer room, lactation room, portable toilet, medical team, ambulance, and additional security personnel," he said.
