Cisumdawu Toll Road Will Operate Functional Eid 2023, But The Ministry Of PUPR Says There Are Problems
Director General of Highways of the Ministry of PUPR Hedy Rahadian said there were technical problems in the operation of the Cileunyi-Sumedang-Dawuan (Cisumdawu) Section 5.
"There is a problem with moving land (on the Cisumdawu Toll Road). We are currently evaluating," said Hedy when met at the DPR RI Building, Jakarta, Tuesday, April 4.
Hedy said that his party was trying to overcome the problem as quickly as possible.
"Try it as soon as possible. We will try (to finish it quickly). Friends again have technical problems there," he said.
Despite efforts to handle it quickly, said Hedy, his party has not been able to confirm when the problem of ground movement can be resolved.
So, at this time, his party is still monitoring while looking at further developments.
"We, right, are monitoring the movement, we have to make sure that the road is safe. So, right, we need to monitor and take action," he said.
Previously, the Ministry of PUPR said that the Cileunyi-Sumedang Dawuan Toll Road Section 4-Seksi 6 (Cimalaka-Dawuan) was officially operating functionally on the 2023 Eid homecoming flow.
This was discovered when PUPR Minister Basuki Hadimuljono accompanied by Bina Marga Director General Hedy Rahadian and PT Brantas President Director Abipraya Sugeng Rochadi inspected the Cileunyi-Sumedang-Dawuan (Cisumdawu) Toll Road in West Java, on Thursday, March 30.
"Later, I will ask for an update report before Lebaran, April 15th," he said in a written statement, Friday, March 31.
The Cisumdawu Toll Road will be opened functionally in order to support the flow of Eid Al-Fitr 2023 homecoming along 29.165 km consisting of, Section 4 Cimalaka-Legok (8.2 Km), Section 5 Legok-Ujung Jaya (14.9 Km), and Section 6 Ujung Jaya-Dawuan, including the Dawuan Junction (6,065 Km).
On April 15, 2023, the condition of the road in Section 4 - Section 6 is targeted that Line A and Line B will be completed, except for locations that need special attention, namely Section 5A at Sta 40+200 and Sta 45+050 and Section 5B at Sta 51+000.
"The connection between the Cisumdawu Toll Road will play an important role in smoothing the flow of homecoming from the Cipali Toll Road to the Cisumdawu Toll Road or vice versa," added Basuki.
