The Jakarta Regional Disaster Mitigation Agency (BPBD) has noted that two roads are still inundated as of 11.30 PM, Friday (2/3).
The inundation is targeted to recede quickly
The inundation arose due to moderate to heavy intensity rain that flushed most of Jakarta and high tides from Thursday (2/2) to today.
Jakarta BPBD Executing Unit Head, Isnawa Adji said personnel had been alerted to monitor inundation conditions in each region. His party is also coordinating with elements from the Jakarta Water Resources (SDA) Agency, Bina Marga Agency, and Fire and Rescue Agency (Gulkarmat) to suck up inundation and ensure the storm drains to function properly.
