Railway Crossing on Jalan Kembang Pacar must Be Closed Down

This railway crossing is on a narrow road near a densely populated area

Central Jakarta Mayor, Mangara Pardede said, a railway crossing on Jalan Kembang Pacar, Kramat Urban Village, Senen Sub-district should be closed down permanently.

According to him, closure is a must in order to prevent collisions between train and vehicle that was occurred last Tuesday (6/13).

"This railway crossing is on a narrow road near a densely populated area. I think it must be closed down permanently," he stated, Wednesday (6/14).

Post-closure, he continued, people can pass through Sentiong area. It is because the distance between Jalan Kembang Pacar or locally known Pasar Gaplok with Sentiong is not too far away.

"You can see a street on both sides of the rails. The motorist can use it as alternative access, precisely from Kramat towards Tanah Tinggi or vice versa," he explained.

He added yesterday's collision accident between train and car is because of the buildup of vehicles, considering the street is quite narrow.

"The car is stuck in the middle of the rail, whereas coming train signal has been sounded," he told.

As known, the Walahar Express train hit a car B 9092 PCM at around 5.03 PM yesterday. It has killed one driver and one passenger of the car.

In the accident, the car bounced off about 30 meters and burnt. Even, the flames also spread to the train cars.
