The mass transport projects in several protocol roads have disturbed the Transjakarta bus head way.
Transjakarta bus should use public lane as its lane is obstructed by the project
In fact, it is the consequence of this traffic handling program.
"Transjakarta bus should use public lane as its lane is obstructed by the project," said Antonius NS Kosasih, PT Transportasi Jakarta Director, Monday (11/2).
Today, Transjakarta Bus Cannot Pass City Hall ShelterHe took example at MRT project on Jalan MH Thamrin, precisely in front of Sarinah building. The bus must use public lane especially when the traffic is jammed.
"No matter what the number of bus we operate, the bus must stay in traffic and the passenger at Sarinah shelter must wait longer," he added.
The similar view is also seen at corridor 9 serving Pinang Ranti Terminal - Pluit Shelter. The bus lane on Jalan Gatot Subroto must share with corridor 13 Transjakarta flyover project.
"It is the part of traffic handling program. Later on, this will be a solution for traffic after the projects are done and we add the bus," he disclosed.
