JAKARTA - The Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR) will realize IKN as a pedestrian-friendly city.
One way to realize IKN as a walkable city is to support convenience for cyclists and pedestrians.
Quoted from the upload on the official Instagram account @kemenpupr, Wednesday, June 19, 2024, later Jalan Sumbu Kebangsaan at IKN will be equipped with bicycle lanes, pedestrians and three lines of plants as a shade.
In the video upload, the Director General of Highways of the Ministry of PUPR Hedy Rahadian is on Jalan Sumbu Kebangsaan IKN and is showing efforts to realize the archipelago as a walking city.
"The first paragraph is pule and flamboyan shady plants. Then, the second row is plants with certain color patterns, such as bungur. Then, the third one later we will install Ketapang date," he said.
Hedy added, in the first row, his party had planted pule and flamboyan trees.
Then, next to the trees, there will be a bicycle lane.
"Later on, there will be a pedestrian route next to him. That's 4 meters wide," said Hedy.

According to Hedy, if the trees that have been planted grow, they will become shade trees in the area.
"So, we will imagine this later like being umbrellaed by trees. So, it's quite shady," he said.
He considered that planting these trees was necessary because the temperature in IKN itself was relatively hot. Remember, it is located close to the equator.
"Well, here there will be the location of the prospective shelter bus. Later we will try to build the prototype and we will provide some places for people to sit," he added.
