Potential Traffic Jams Lurk Ahead of Exodus

The operational ban on trucks during the Idul Fitri exodus, starting from June 12, may potentially worsen traffic along Java’s northern coastal route from June 9 to 10. Meanwhile, on Java’s southern coastal route, bridge constructions pose a challenge.

Work continues on Monday (21/5/2018) on an interchange for the Pejagan-Pemalang toll road section in Gandulan, Pemalang, Central Java. The Pejagan-Pemalang toll road section is expected to be ready for use by travelers heading home after celebrating Lebaran in their hometowns.

CIREBON, KOMPAS – Homebound journeys for this year’s Idul Fitri exodus are expected to start on Monday, June 11, the first day of common leave. However, as the preceding Friday (8/6/2018) will be the last day of work before the common leave, some holidaymakers may start their homebound journeys on Friday and Saturday (9/6/2018) to beat traffic.

Last year, homebound journey traffic peaked on June 23, two days before Idul Fitri. At the time, the Transportation Ministry had imposed an operational ban on trucks from June 21, four days before Idul Fitri.
