TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - PT Jasa Marga (Persero) Tbk. recorded 459,147 vehicles leaving the Jabodetabek area from 10 to 8 days before 2025 Eid al-Fitr, which falls on March 21-23, 2025.

The figure is the total traffic from four main toll gates: GT Cikampek Utama (towards Trans Java), GT Kalihurip Utama (towards Bandung), GT Cikupa (towards Merak), and GT Ciawi (towards Puncak).

Corporate Communication & Community Development Group Head of Jasa Marga, Lisye Octaviana, stated that this number reflects a 17.8 percent increase from last year's Eid homecoming, which recorded 389,645 vehicles. It also surpasses normal traffic by 1.7 percent or approximately 51,577 vehicles.

Providing further details, Lisye reported that 113,248 vehicles left Jabodetabek towards Trans Java via GT Cikampek Utama on the Jakarta-Cikampek Toll Road, marking a 10.02 percent rise from normal traffic.

Meanwhile, 96,459 vehicles headed towards Bandung via GT Kalihurip Utama on the Cipularang Toll Road, which is 12 percent lower than the normal flow.

"The total traffic leaving Jabodetabek towards Trans Java and Bandung through these two Main Toll Gates is 209,707 vehicles, an increase of 6.7 percent from normal traffic," said Lisye in a written statement on Tuesday, March 25, 2025.

For the Merak route, Jasa Marga recorded 144,202 vehicles passing through GT Cikupa on the Tangerang-Merak Toll Road, a 0.5 percent increase compared to normal traffic.

Towards Puncak, 105,238 vehicles left Jabodetabek via GT Ciawi on the Jagorawi Toll Road, which is 5.7 percent lower than usual.

Lisye also mentioned that a 20 percent toll discount has been in effect since early last week until March 26, 2025, covering Jasa Marga and non-Jasa Marga toll sections, including Cikopo-Palimanan, Kanci-Pejagan, Pejagan-Pemalang, and Pemalang-Batang. The discount for the Jakarta-Semarang Trans Java route only applies from GT Cikampek Utama to Kalikangkung.

To ease congestion and prevent accidents, Jasa Marga has restricted freight transport operations on its toll roads from March 24 to April 6, under police discretion.

Lisye advised travelers to check vehicle conditions, fuel, and electronic toll balances before their journey.

"Jasa Marga urges road users to anticipate their journey before entering toll roads," she said.
