Preparation For Lebaran 2022 Homecoming, Construction Of The Way Pengubuan Bridge In Central Lampung Is Accelerated

JAKARTA - The work on the Way Pengubuan Bridge, District, Terbanggi, Central Lampung, is still in the process of being worked on. Considering that the 2022 Eid homecoming will be coming soon, the construction of this bridge has been accelerated.

This was conveyed by the Head of the Department of Highways and Construction (BMBK) of Lampung Province, Febrizal Levi Sukmana. He said the bridge construction was accelerated before the 2022 Eid homecoming.

"The Way Pangubuan Bridge, which is located at kilometer 70 of the Central Cross Route of Lampung Province, is indeed under the authority of the hall, but we have coordinated. The work is accelerated before going home for Lebaran," said Febrizal Levi Sukmana, in Bandarlampung, as quoted by Antara, Saturday 9 April.

He explained that the acceleration of the bridge construction was carried out to facilitate the homecoming flow through the Central Cross road.

"Currently, the majority use toll roads, but there are still those who pass through the Central Cross. So that at least an alternative is to smooth the flow of going home and all work can be completed before Eid," he said.

However, it is possible that there will be a slight slowdown in the repair area of the Way Pangubuan Bridge, or in a number of provincial or national roads in the near future due to improvements and repairs.

"Indeed, during this repair there will be a slowdown in several national, provincial or bridge roads. But only before the homecoming flow takes place," he said.

He said, with the repair of bridges, as well as national and provincial roads, it is hoped that the 2022 Eid homecoming implementation will not experience problems.

"Hopefully, with regular repairs and maintenance on roads and bridges this year, there will be no problems," he said.

It is known that the length of the national road in Lampung Province reaches 1,292.25 kilometers, of which the Central Cross is 323.14 kilometers long, the East Cross is 285.96 kilometers, the West Cross is 312.89 kilometers, and the connecting road is 341.58 kilometers.

And for road conditions under the authority of Lampung Province, of the total length of 1,693,273 kilometers, 75.38 percent are steady roads, and 24.61 percent are unstable roads.

Then there are 52,136 kilometers in good condition, 23,251 kilometers in moderate condition, 9.7 kilometers with light damage, and 14.8 kilometers in heavily damaged condition.
