In the Cross-Sectoral Coordination Meeting for the preparation of Eid al-Fitr 1446 H, the Head of the Indonesian National Police (INP) Traffic Corps, Inspector General Agus Suryonugroho, emphasized that his party is confident that they can guarantee smooth traffic during the homecoming season.

"INP Traffic Corps and its ranks are certainly ready in preparing for Operation Ketupat 2025. We have conducted various surveys, mitigation, as well as coordination and collaboration with stakeholders to deal with the surge in vehicles during the homecoming season," said Agus on Monday (3/10/2025).

Furthermore, he emphasized that as an effort to reduce traffic density, INP Traffic Corps will implement a number of situational traffic engineering starting from the contraflow and one-way systems.

"We plan to implement contraflow if the volume of vehicles at the toll gate reaches 5,000 to 6,000 vehicles per hour, at KM 70 to KM 414 toll road section. If the number of vehicles increases to 8,000 vehicles per hour or approaches that number, then the one-way system will be implemented," he explained. 

Moreover, Agus states that starting March 24, 2025, three-axle vehicles will be prohibited from operating on arterial roads and toll roads, especially on the Trans Java section.

The odd-even (gage) rule will also be enforced during Operation Ketupat 2025, in accordance with the Joint Decree (SKB) that has been agreed upon.

"Odd-even rule will be implemented during Operation Ketupat, in accordance with the policies that have been set out in the SKB," he added.

Meanwhile, regarding the celebration of Nyepi Day, Inspector General Agus said that access from Banyuwangi to Bali will be closed starting March 28, 2025 until 17.00 WIB, while from Bali to Banyuwangi will remain open until March 29, 2025.
