We are ensuring the road remains functional
The year-long integrated design-and-build project is scheduled to run through December 2026.
According to Syafrin Liputo, Head of Jakarta Transportation Agency (Dishub), the construction is split into five distinct zones, with work progressing on different timelines for each area.
MRT Phase 2 Construction Around Thamrin Entrance 4 Starts, Traffic Rearranged"We are ensuring the road remains functional by providing two replacement lanes through sidewalk-side widening along the work area,” he explained, Wednesday (1/28).
Despite detour phases in multiple construction zones, the agency is working to keep traffic flowing. Drivers should avoid Jalan Prof. Dr. Latumeten and Jalan Makaliwe Raya to reduce bottlenecks.
Recommended alternatives for those heading North from Jalan Daan Mogot include Jalan Pangeran Tubagus Angke and Jalan KH Moch Mansyur.
