Reported by Nurito | Translated by
As many as 92 out of 180 potholes that located in East
Jakarta have been repaired. While the rest damaged roads are still in
reparation process.
The reparation is done gradually and prioritized on protocol road because often bypassed vehicles
Those potholes that have been repaired are on Jalan KRT
Radjiman (4 points), Jalan Raya Bekasi Timur (5 points), Jalan Perintis
Kemerdekaan (9 points), Jalan Ahmad Yani (4 points), Jalan Gusti Ngurah Rai (8
Points), and Jalan Basuki Rahmat (1 point).
"The reparation is done gradually and prioritized on
protocol road because often bypassed vehicles," told Head of East Jakarta
Bina Marga Sub-Department, Juani, Thursday (3/12).
Juani mentions the pothole is generally caused by the top
layer of asphalt cannot resistant to rainwater and unoptimal channel function.
Thus water overflows into the road. Moreover, many vehicles pass the road.
Besides repairing, the sub-department will also apply the concrete layer for potholes on Jalan Tipar Cakung with 400 square meter, Jalan Taman Malaka
Selatan Pondok Kelapa with 100 square meters, Jalan SMAN 61 with 50 square
meters, and other points.
