The Lampiri Bridge, which crosses the Malang River in Pondok Kelapa Urban Village area, Duren Sawit, East Jakarta has been transformed into a space for community interaction.

Hopefully, our hard work will benefit the residents

Pondok Kelapa Urban Village Head, Rasikin said the bridge, which was no longer used as a traffic access on the north and south sides of the road was often used as an illegal parking location, so it looked rundown.

"After not being used and closed, the bridge is often used as an illegal and dirty parking location. That's why we try to do the arrangement," he expressed, Thursday (5/25).

According to him, the bridge arrangement which has 15 meters width and 20 meters length is part of the second phase of the 2023 flagship area. The arrangement which has been carried out since last March includes painting it in colors, making play facilities, and reforesting it.

"Every day, we deploy five to six PPSU personnel to work on this work," he expressed.

The progress so far has touched 80 percent and is targeted to be completed in June 2023.

"Hopefully, our hard work will benefit the residents," he asserted.
