Jammed at Traffic Light

In the last two decades of traffic along the road, Yogyakarta appeared increasingly dense flow changes. Yogya jammed! Two Decades ago, even before that, Yogya has been known as a city of culture, city students, and city tours. A predicate that is not easily carried any city. first, the cost of living is relatively cheap in Yogya financial ability to reach students. Predicate impressive as a city of culture, students, and travel has invited all students to study at public and private universities are ready to accept the presence of students with open arms. Education is a long-tiered process which by default will change the destiny of man.

In the 1990s the Indonesian Islamic University campus building 25 hectares of land in Jalan Kaliurang Kilometer 14. Construction of the campus is coupled with the construction of a boarding room, house rent, food stalls, internet cafes, a photocopy, salon, bank, Indomaret, and the whole activities that support the purposes of student life. In the region of South Yogyakarta Muhammadiyah University and other universities to develop wings, accompanied by the development of the site as a social facility student life. University development has always been a site that calls the development of society to coexist in the framework of the educational process. The circumstances surrounding the university building which was originally silent, slowly turned into a bustling, into life, and led to traffic jams.

Jammed around the traffic lights have become commonplace, the driver had to wait until the green light is on, or have to keep waiting, because of the long queues in front of the car blocking the pace car driven until the next green light. While passing vehicles in high speed add to the density of traffic. Kaliurang Street originally far from the density of motor vehicles ended up being busy path that must be passed with caution. Until kilometre 15 Kaliurang Street almost solid except after 23:00. The atmosphere is comfortable driving back feels over kilometres to 15 or on a small street not far from the busy roads this path.

As for as a tourist site with a variety of destinations from Yogya become increasingly crowded on holidays with serious problems on the road, traffic jams. The situation about 20 years ago no longer visible on the highway, leaving only the form in the suburbs when public activity is very limited. On holidays along Malioboro gridlocked in a few hours until the travellers had to walk to the nearby sites. The road into Parang Tritis, Kaliurang, Prambanan and Borobudur filled buses, the whole car plate of Java and even outside of Java, from A to Z looked along the way, to be part of the congestion. Car park at the mall almost full, return the necessary patience to park the vehicle safely. On the day of Eid accounted for approximately 4 million four-wheel vehicles will enter Yogya, use the facilities of the same street.

The density of vehicles on the highway that is increasingly
not stopped will not change as a City of Culture title Yogya, Student City, and the City Tour. Mutations permanent residents or temporary unstoppable, Yogya is part of the republic are open to anyone. Construction of alternative roads or development sites in the suburbs perhaps life could be a solution to overcome bottlenecks.
