This illegal parking causes traffic jams until Jalan Senen Raya

Operational Control Section Head for Road Traffic and Transportation, Haryo Bagus said today's operation is a routine agenda. So far, the road area located adjacent to the Gatot Subroto Army Hospital has often become a location for illegal parking.

"The illegal parking at the location is indeed rampant today. That's why, we immediately control them," he expressed.

He explained its existence often caused traffic jams and was protested by road users.

He hoped that people use the official parking in the area inside the hospital.

"This illegal parking causes traffic jams until Jalan Senen Raya," he asserted.

The action above received appreciation from one of the residents from Halim, Aditya. Thus far, when passing to the office in Tanah Abang, we often find illegal parking at the same area, causing traffic obstructions and triggering traffic jams.

"Hopefully, personnel will take action more often on that road," he stated.
