The connecting channel on Jalan Pejagalan Raya, Pekojan, Tambora, West Jakarta, was normalized. It is aimed to clean the channel from mud and trash, and to smooth the water flow during rainy season.

After the rain stopped, we directly cleaned the channel

Tri Prasetyo Utomo, Pekojan Urban Village Head, said that the effort was done together with Tambora Sub-district Water Management Section and Bina Marga.

“After the rain stopped, we directly cleaned the channel,” he said, Monday (2/1).

This 700 meter-long channel cleaning will be continued by uncovering the manhole assisted by PPSU personnel.

“It is hoped the effort would minimize the puddle,” he added.
