Matraman Sub-district SDA Task Force Coordinator, Tamrizal stated the channels dredged are spread over six RT areas, namely RT 01, 03, 04, 07, 13, and 14/RW 07, with a total channel length of 750 meters.
According to him, the channel, which is about 40 to 60 centimeters in dimension was dredged, as the mud had reached 30 centimeters. Thus, the capacity of the water debit is reduced and it is worried that it could trigger inundation.
