Particular attention will be given to rest areas at KM 52 and 62, which were temporarily closed due to narrow entry points causing vehicle pile-ups. The evaluation aims to prevent future congestion and ensure safety by improving facilities, including those without petrol stations, while ongoing road repairs address potholes to avoid disruptions during peak travel periods.",
        "content": "<p>Semarang - Public Works Minister Dody Hanggodo stated that the layout\nof various rest areas along the Trans Java toll road will be evaluated\nafter the implementation of the 2026 Lebaran mudik and return traffic.\n\u201cIt will be evaluated, especially the rest areas at KM 52 and 62 which\nwere temporarily closed during the mudik traffic yesterday,\u201d Dody said\nin Semarang on Saturday. According to him, the vehicle build-up of mudik\ntravellers at both rest areas was due to overly narrow entry lanes.\nAfter the Lebaran mudik and return traffic, he said the Public Works\nMinistry will form a team tasked with evaluating the layout of rest\nareas along the toll road. \u201cSpecifically for those two rest areas, they\nwill be rearranged,\u201d he said. One focus of the evaluation, he continued,\nis rest areas not equipped with petrol stations that must bear heavy\nloads from toll road users\u2019 vehicles. Through the evaluation, he said,\nin the future there will be no vehicle pile-ups of mudik travellers\nentering rest areas. Thus, according to him, when the toll road is\nheavily loaded, there should no longer be road users piling up on the\nroadside, which endangers safety. Regarding the road conditions during\nthis Lebaran mudik and return traffic, he said repairs are continuously\nbeing carried out on pothole points. \u201cIf there is a pothole, it is\nfilled within 24 hours. Do not let the return traffic be disrupted,\u201d he\nsaid.<\/p>",
