Lebaran Return Flow: 2.3 Million Vehicles Have Entered Jakarta

PT Jasa Marga (Persero) Tbk has recorded 2.3 million vehicles entering Jakarta during the Lebaran return flow period up to Friday, 27 March 2026, morning.

“From the data held by Jasa Marga up to this morning at 06.00 WIB, 2.3 million vehicles have entered Jakarta. This means 69% has been achieved,” said Jasa Marga President Director Rivan A. Purwantono at the Korlantas Polri Command Centre Post KM 29 Tol Cikampek, Bekasi Regency, West Java, on Friday, 27 March 2026.

According to Rivan, in this return flow, a one-way traffic engineering scheme is being implemented considering the number of vehicles returning to Jakarta.

“Especially looking at the predictions which are exactly the same. For example, on the 24th, 25th, and yesterday the 26th, the trends were exactly the same. So, from 206 thousand, 192 thousand, it is predicted that today will be 183 thousand, then rising again to 200 and up to 250 thousand estimated on Sunday (29/3),” he said.

He also revealed that several rest areas are causing traffic density, particularly at KM 229, KM 208, and KM 164. To address this, Jasa Marga will implement optional opening and closing of rest areas. He also urged the public to utilise the rest areas before them.

“We also urge the public to prepare because before 229 there are also 360, 380 or after it at 130 which can be used, and at the next opportunity, rest areas 62B and 52B will certainly be declared optional for opening and closing,” he stated.

Previously, the second phase of the precise local one-way traffic engineering from KM 263 Tol Pejagan to KM 70 Tol Cikampek Utama was implemented on Friday, 27 March 2026. Earlier, Korlantas Polri had implemented the first phase of the Lebaran return flow one-way from KM 132 to KM 70 Tol Trans Jawa on Friday morning at 07.30 WIB.

The implementation of this one-way scheme was symbolically opened by the Minister of Transportation (Menhub) Dudy Purwagandhi at the Korlantas Polri Command Centre Post KM 29 Tol Cikampek, Bekasi Regency, West Java, on Friday.

“Based on reports from Candi Zebra One, Lodaya Zebra One, as well as the results of monitoring the controlled traffic flow situation, today Friday, 27 March 2026, at 10.23 WIB, the implementation of the second phase of precise one-way is declared open,” said Korlantas Polri Chief Inspector General of Police Agus Suryonugroho at the Korlantas Polri Command Centre Post KM 29 Tol Cikampek, Bekasi Regency, West Java, on Friday.
