"We already committed to separate railways with main roads. Next year, we're going to build on three locations and 2 others on Jalan Latumenten and Cakung are on planning," said Faizal, Monday (12/7).

He told that almost all railway locations that become the government's obligation have been constructed with flyovers. Including on Jalan Tubagus Angke, the location of crash incident between metromini and KRL Commuter Line, Sunday (12/6).

"Actually flyover had been built on the road. But maybe because the metromini served passengers, then it kept passing under the flyover. This year, we also have been constructing some flyovers. Including in Permata Senayan," he explained.
