Jakarta – Viral on social media video shows a driver of the mining truck that blocks public roads in Parung Panjang, Bogor, West Java. The driver’s actions are believed to have protested at the Tangerang border at the Tangerang border at the Tangerang border in the morning at the Tangerang border. Bayu Ramawanto, head of Bogor Regency Transport Agency, said recreation or operational adjustments are currently being implemented because there is a process to repair damaged roads on JL Raya Parung Panjang. Browse to continue with the content during the recreation period, mining trucks are allowed without load to start at 09.00 WIB-11.00 WIB and 13.00 WIB-16.00 WIB, while the trucks loaded with mining are only allowed to succeed at 22.00 WIB-05.00 WIB. “Why are there relaxation, if all the voices (trucks without load) or the filling are the same time in the road, it will certainly be trapped (traffic jam) on the road. Not only for trucks, but it will also have an impact on the community, especially in the morning,” Bayu told reporters on Friday (9/19/2025). Based on the Regulation Regulation (Perbup) number 23 of 2023, the operations of mining trucks were determined to work only at 13.00 WIB-16.00 WIB and 22.00 WIB-05.00 WIB. Similar rules are also applied by the Tangerang Regency government. The relaxation of the working hours of mining trucks is aimed at avoiding the accumulation of vehicles, because part of JL Parung Panjang can only be crossed by a track impact of recovery projects. The 23 kilometer road repair project is planned to be executed until December. Trucks that work during recreational hours are then protested by residents when they enter the Tangerang area, because the Tangerang Regency government does not apply recreational rules. The protest then caused the action of the truck driver and led to the roadblock on Wednesday (9/18). “So it has been discussed that Perbup (regulation) between Tangerang Perbup and Bogor Regency Perbup is related to the same time (truck working hours), only for Tangerang did not apply the recreational hours,” Bayu said. Bayu said the continued meeting between the Bogor and the Tangerang Regency government will be held Sunday (9/21). The meeting was held to implement the meeting point of the Bogor-Tangerang truck during the recreation period. “Later on Sunday, the Regent (Rudi Susmanto) will meet with the Tangerang Regent to discuss the issue, including working hours, especially recreation (working hours) that until December,” he added. Bogor police chief Wikha Ardilesanto said the roadblock had almost caused a riot between residents and truck drivers. But the riot was successfully prevented and the traffic flow returned to normal. “There was almost a riot between the community and the mining managers in Parung Panjang. Last night there was an indication that they wanted to close the road as happened in December 2023. Thanks to the Lord, the staff of the previous night could move there quickly, so there was no road closing. Wikha said the Bogor and Tangerang Regency government will meet to find solutions related to the operational relaxation of mining trucks. It will also make a combined post to keep the situation conducive. “For Bogor Regency, we have prepared several combined postpoints of the transport agency, Polp, Polri and TNI. We will maintain the situation jointly, so that the Regent of Bogor and the Regent of Tanger can be a joint solution within the next two days,” Wikha said. (Sol/Azh)
