        "summary": "Traffic congestion on Jalan Raya Cakung-Cilincing is being driven by an imbalance between high import volumes and low export activity at Tanjung Priok Port, leading to a build-up of containers. The North Jakarta Transportation Agency is directing lorries to wait at Terminal Tanah Merdeka to prevent queues from blocking public roads. Authorities have deployed 30 personnel and implemented dynamic traffic engineering measures to improve vehicle flow in the area.",
        "content": "<p>The head of the North Jakarta Transportation Agency (Sudinhub), Rudy\nSaptari Sulesuryana, has stated that traffic congestion on Jalan Raya\nCakung-Cilincing (Cacing) is triggered by an imbalance in the logistics\nflow at the Tanjung Priok Port area. \u201cThe high volume of imports, which\nis not matched by export activity, causes a build-up of containers in\nthe Tanjung Priok Port area and depots,\u201d Rudy Saptari said in Jakarta on\nFriday. He assessed that this condition has subsequently led to\nincreased long queues of lorries on the main roads. In response to this\nissue, the North Jakarta Sudinhub is directing lorry drivers to wait at\nthe Tanah Merdeka Terminal if there is a long queue heading to the\ndepot. This is done so that the road can still be used by other\nvehicles. \u201cSo the highway is not blocked by the lorry queue,\u201d he said.\nMeanwhile, the Head of the Traffic Control and Operations and Road\nTransport Section of the North Jakarta Sudinhub, Yulza Romadhoni Putra,\nsaid a total of 30 personnel have been deployed to manage traffic flow\nat several points prone to congestion. \u201cOver the last two days, we have\ncarried out traffic engineering and the results have been quite positive\nfor the smooth flow of vehicles,\u201d he said. According to him, based on\nmonitoring results at the KBN Cakung turnaround on Thursday (23\/7), the\ntraffic flow heading north was observed to be smooth. Meanwhile, the\nflow of vehicles from Kebon Baru heading south in the Babek area\nexperienced some congestion. He confirmed that traffic management in the\nKBN Cakung area is carried out dynamically by adjusting to real-time\nconditions on the ground. He ensured that vehicle flow can move\noptimally by maximising the use of available road space. \u201cWe urge road\nusers to comply with the directions of officers for the sake of smooth\ntraffic for all,\u201d he said.<\/p>",
