Bali\u2019s Transportation Agency (Dishub) has predicted that the number\nof passengers entering and leaving Bali will increase by approximately\n4% during the Eid holiday exodus in 2026.<\/p>\n
Bali\u2019s Transportation Agency head I Kadek Mudarta stated that during\nthe 2025 Eid holiday period, the number of passengers entering and\nleaving Bali reached approximately 2.36 million people with 349,000\nvehicles.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur prediction for 2026 is around 2.46 million passengers with\nvehicles estimated at approximately 365,000 vehicles,\u201d said Mudarta in\nDenpasar on Tuesday (10 March 2026). \u201cThat\u2019s a roughly 4% increase in\nour prediction.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mudarta noted that this year\u2019s Eid holiday exodus will not experience\nsignificant changes compared to the previous year. This is because the\nNyepi celebration coinciding with Eid also occurred last year.<\/p>\n
According to him, residents have begun adjusting their travel\nschedules to align with Nyepi celebrations. Travellers departing from\nBali typically concentrate at exit points such as airports and ports two\ndays before Nyepi.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen the pengerupukan occurs, the volume of movement drops\nsignificantly, which means we can conclude that the public already\nunderstands this and can plan their travel accordingly,\u201d Mudarta\nexplained.<\/p>\n
The Transportation Agency Prepares 26 Support Posts<\/p>\n
The agency has coordinated with police to establish support posts at\nvarious major routes. A total of 26 posts have been prepared to serve\nholiday travellers.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere are quite a number located in port areas, terminals, and along\ntravel routes,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
These posts will provide services for Eid holiday travellers as well\nas residents returning to their hometowns ahead of the Nyepi\ncelebration.<\/p>\n
\u201cThese support posts will provide various services including rest\nareas for passengers, health checks, and assistance for specific needs\nsuch as emergencies,\u201d Mudarta explained.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/bali-expects-4-surge-in-passenger-traffic-during-eid-holiday-period-2026-1773132807", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
