        "content": "<p>Yogyakarta Main Terminal, Giwangan Terminal, is crowded with\nreturning migrants from the Eid holiday since Wednesday, 25 March 2026.\nOne of them is the free return flow joined by more than 500 migrants\nfrom the Special Region of Yogyakarta (DIY) who are heading back to the\nJakarta, Bogor, Depok, Tangerang, and Bekasi (Jabodetabek) areas. They\nare using a total of 12 buses from the 2026 Eid Transportation Free\nMudik Programme by the Ministry of Transportation, departed from\nGiwangan Type A Terminal, Yogyakarta City. \u201cThe fleet for this return\nflow uses big bus types with each having a capacity of 45 passengers,\u201d\nsaid the Head of the Land Transportation Management Agency (BPTD) Class\nII D.I. Yogyakarta, Dody Arifianto. From Giwangan Terminal, the DIY\nmigrants will be dropped off at four main destinations. Namely,\nJatijajar Terminal in Depok, Poris Plawad in Tangerang, Kampung Rambutan\nin East Jakarta, and Pulogebang Cakung in East Jakarta. \u201cThis free\nreturn is primarily to reduce the use of motorcycles for long-distance\njourneys that have relatively high accident risks,\u201d said Dody. He stated\nthat nationally, the Ministry of Transportation provides 401 buses and\n80 motorcycle transport trucks in 2026. A total of 19 motorcycles\nbelonging to participants are transported using trucks to Jabodetabek.\nAssistant for General Administration of the Yogyakarta City Regional\nSecretariat, Kadri Renggono, stated that the free return programme using\npublic transportation needs to increase its quota every year. \u201cBecause\nthe enthusiasm of participants for this return flow is as high as the\nmudik flow, but the return quota is still very limited,\u201d he said. Teguh\nMaulana, one of the participants who will get off in the Depok area,\nsaid he was lucky to register before the quota ran out on 6 March, even\nthough the online registration was initially scheduled until 15 March.\n\u201cI hope the number of fleets is increased next year so that more people\ncan be accommodated.\u201d Density of the return flow also occurred on the\ntrain transportation mode. The Public Relations Manager of KAI Daop 6\nYogyakarta, Feni Novida, said the peak return flow in her area occurred\non Tuesday, 24 March, with a total of 32,000 tickets booked on that day.\n\u201cWe are operating 13 additional trains to anticipate it,\u201d said Feni on\nWednesday, 25 March 2026. Cumulative data shows departures of passengers\nfrom all areas of Daop 6 reaching more than 35,000 people. The details\nare that Yogyakarta Tugu Station serves more than 14,000 departures in a\nday to major cities such as Jakarta, Bandung, and Surabaya. Meanwhile,\nthe DIY Regional Police Chief, Inspector General of Police Anggoro\nSukartono, said during the 2026 Eid holiday, vehicles entering the area\nare estimated to reach 2.2 million vehicles until Tuesday, 24 March\n2026. Most of those vehicles are private vehicles. \u201cFor the number of\nvehicles leaving DIY, around 1.2 million vehicles,\u201d he said.<\/p>",
