Jasamarga Continues Jakarta-Cikampek Toll Road Maintenance in Preparation for Eid al-Fitr Exodus
Bekasi (ANTARA) - PT. Jasamarga Transjawa Toll (JTT) is continuing periodic maintenance work on the Jakarta-Cikampek toll road in order to provide a safe and comfortable journey for the public, as well as to strengthen operational readiness in anticipation of the 1447 Hijri Eid al-Fitr exodus.
“This activity is part of the company’s ongoing commitment to maintaining service quality, especially in the lead-up to the Eid al-Fitr homecoming period, which is synonymous with increased public mobility,” said Senior Manager Representative Office 1 of PT. JTT, Amri Sanusi, in Bekasi, West Java, on Thursday.
He explained that the maintenance activities include patching at several priority locations based on the results of routine road condition inspections as a form of preventive maintenance to ensure that the pavement quality remains optimal and comfortable for travel. The work is carried out in a planned manner while still paying attention to the safety of road users.
“We have carried out the patching work from Km 14+570 to Km 14+820 in the direction of Cikampek on lane 1, and from Km 23+750 to Km 23+800 in the direction of Cikampek on lane 1. All work is carried out at times that have been carefully calculated to minimise the impact on traffic flow,” he said.
“During the work, the Jakarta-Cikampek toll road remains operational in both directions. Our officers are on standby in the field, we are narrowing the work area, and we have prepared a contraflow scheme if needed. All of this is done to ensure that traffic flow remains smooth and safe,” he said.
The company is also disseminating information through warning banners at the work locations and “Dynamic Message Signs” (DMS) on both sides of the Jakarta-Cikampek toll road to ensure that road users receive the information clearly.
“We apologise for any inconvenience that may arise during the work. We urge road users to plan their travel time, ensure that their vehicles are in good condition, and comply with traffic signs and directions from officers,” he said.
Road users can also access the latest information about toll road traffic and service requests through Jasa Marga’s 24-hour call centre at 14080.
“We also urge road users to always ensure that they have sufficient electronic money balance before entering the toll road, maintain a safe distance, and comply with traffic signs and directions from officers in the field,” said Ria.
