Floods On The Jakarta-Soetta Airport Capai Toll Road 40 Cm, Two Toll Roads Affected

JAKARTA - Rain accompanied by wind hit a number of areas, resulting in flooding in various areas. On the Jakarta-Soekarno Hatta Toll Road, KM 33 floods reached up to 40 centimeters.

Kasatlantas Kompol Bernad Saragih confirmed the incident. The incident occurred on Friday, March 22.

"It's true that the flood was flooded with a water level of 30-40 centimeters," Bernad said when confirmed, Friday, March 22.

However, traffic flow (Lalin) can still be passed. Because only two lanes were affected by the flood.

"Two lanes from the direction of Jakarta-Soetta Airport can still be crossed, only two to the left," he said.

Bernad suspects that the cause of flooding was due to heavy rain accompanied by strong winds, resulting in overflowing water in the area.

"Due to high rainfall, it causes puddles," he said.

Currently, his party together with Soekarno Hatta Airport are making efforts to extract water so that traffic returns smoothly.

"We have coordinated with AP II, to jointly handle and regulate traffic flow," he said.

Previously, the toll road in the city area of Soekarno Hatta Airport was flooded. Information said that the high puddle occurred on the PIK 2 Toll Road, Tangerang Regency.

"Flooding of adults, the remaining 1 right lane, so just entering is already jammed," wrote the description in the video received by VOI.

Contacted separately, the Toll Communications Central confirmed the incident. However, for more details, he asked Jasa Marga for confirmation, to prevent an error in the mention of information.

'(Relation to) 14080 Jasa Marga. Let's be more detailed, because that's the location there, still in the Kamal area, Kembangan toll road. Let's be more detailed about the information. We're only affected by just kemacaten," said the Central Political Communication Officer when confirmed, Friday, March 22.
