TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - State-owned toll road operator PT Jasa Marga urged Eid homecomer or mudik travelers to only visit and rest at the toll road’s rest area for 30 minutes during the homecoming period to avoid overcrowds and congestion on the highways.
"We will periodically issue the notion, especially during peak hours so that people can take turns [to the rest area]," said PT Jasa Marga Acting Director of Commercial Business, Tita Paulina, in a press conference at the Jasa Marga Tollroad Command Center, Bekasi, West Java on Monday, April 3, 2023.
Jasa Marga also asked travelers not to eat at rest areas. Travelers are allowed to buy food and drinks but they are highly suggested to order takeaway. That way, Tita argued, traffic congestion could be avoided in restaurants operating in rest areas. "So, give a chance to others [to access the rest area],” Tita added.
Jasa Marga predicted that congestion will occur in 23 rest areas during this year’s Eid homecoming season. They are as follows:
- Rest area KM 19 A of Jakarta - Cikampek toll road
