Jalan Kebanggaan Drain Upgrade Set for Next Week Completion"The work has been underway since September 10 and we are targeting completion in early November," he said, Monday (9/21).
According to Zulfahmi, this work follows up on residents' requests submitted at the 2026 Musrenbang. Residents wanted the channel renovated because its condition was no longer able to flow the water during the rainy season.
One of the local residents, Wahyuni, admitted so far, the residential area has often been flooded when it rains because the water in the channels overflows.
"Hopefully, after being widened, the channel will be able to flow more water, so that it doesn't overflow and cause flooding during the upcoming rainy season," she hoped.
