However, access has not been fully restored as there are still tree branches on some parts of the road. Police from the West Jakarta Metro Police Traffic Unit AKP Prayitno said there were no victims and no vehicles were damaged as a result of this incident. It is said that the 10 meter fallen tree only hit the road markings. “Thank God, when the incident happened at 16:00, thank God there were no victims, either of people or vehicles,” Prayitno said on Friday (12/12/2025) at the site of the fallen tree. “Luckily (the tree) went straight (collapsed) onto the road. Yes, it’s true that there were road signs that were suddenly blocked, yes, that’s all,” he continued. It is known that the fallen tree occurred from this afternoon until access on Jalan Kunir was closed. This incident also affected a number of TransJakarta routes, one of which was Corridor 12 Pluit-Tanjung Priok which experienced route diversions. “Meanwhile, the direction from Tanjung Priok does not serve the Pakin bus stop to Hal Mangga Dua,” the X Transjakarta account wrote.
