PT KAI closed 36 unofficial crossings in the Daop IV Semarang area as an effort to maintain public safety.

Public Relations Manager of PT KAI Daop 4 Semarang Ixfan Hendri Wintoko said there were 28 traffic accidents at a railroad crossing in the Daop 4 Semarang area throughout 2023.

"The number of traffic accidents at level crossings is still happening. To date, 28 incidents have been recorded in the Daop 4 area," he said as quoted by ANTARA, Wednesday, July 26.

According to Hendri, in the Semarang Daop area, there are 342 railroad crossings.

Of this number, he said, 171 crossings were not guarded.

PT KAI also provides socialization to road users at a number of train crossings.

Socialization, said Hendri, involves various stakeholders, including the train-loving community on a regular basis.

According to him, whether or not there is a train crossing door, road users are advised to pause for a while to ensure that no train will pass.

"If there are trains that will pass, road users must prioritize the train that will pass," he added.
