The Jakarta Bina Marga Dept. installed 251 poles of street lighting (PJU) complete with lights along Jalan Laksmana Malahayati, East Jakarta. Besides adding lighting, it also beautifies the area along this road.

Its installation has been carried out in stages since June 15

East Jakarta Bina Marga Sub-agency Head, Benhard Hutajulu said the street light poles installed have a height of more than seven meters with a flame motif and are equipped with the Jakarta Provincial Government's logo.

"Its installation has been carried out in stages since June 15," he said, Wednesday (11/29).

Of 251 poles, 247 poles were completed with LED lamps with 120 watts of power, while the other four were completed with LED lamps with 80 watts of power.

Hopefully, the additional street light poles and lamps would improve the lighting of the road area. Besides increasing driver comfort when passing, improving lighting would also impact the security and safety of road users.

"The existence of this pole with a distinctive motif also beautifies the Jalan Laksamana Malahayati area, which is one of the access points in and out of Jakarta," he stated.
