This is an integral part of solving the problem of congestion in Jakarta
She said several options to deal with congestion need to be carried out with a comprehensive study.
"When the policy has been implemented, it is necessary to evaluate it for improvements, the results are maximized," she expressed, Tuesday (6/15).
Senator Sylvi Hopes LEZ can Be a Pilot for All Areas of JakartaShe explained the setting the hours of going to and from work or school could be a policy implemented to deal with congestion.
"Through this mechanism, there is a pause in the movement or mobility of residents. So, all are not on the road at the same time," she stated.
She explained that setting the hours of going to and from work or school could be a policy implemented to deal with congestion.
"It also applies to all civil servants in agencies or institutions in Jakarta. For office needs or mobility, there are usually operational service vehicles (KDO)," she explained.
To overcome congestion, there should be policies from upstream to downstream. In the upstream sector, it could be done by limiting the age of the vehicle.
"This is an integral part of solving the problem of congestion in Jakarta," she added.
Even, the Jakarta Provincial Government could also make a policy to eliminate the use of public transportation for free, at least Transjakarta buses.
"It is currently free for the beneficiaries of social assistance. It can be expanded again so that using public transportation will have an attraction first," she uttered.
No less important, public transportation in Jakarta should be truly safe and comfortable for its users.
"There should be no more cases of harassment of women or criminal acts on public transportation," she said.
She believes the problem of congestion can be resolved in the current governorship. At the very least, it will create a strong foundation for future policy.
"Some time ago, we, ASN Jakarta retirees, met him. Mr. Heru is very open with suggestions. He is an extraordinary figure who I believe can bring the best for Jakarta," she finished.
