JAKARTA - Central Java-DI Yogyakarta National Road Implementation Center (BBPJN) Directorate General of Highways of the Ministry of Public Works (PU) is completing the construction of the Canguk Flyover (FO) in Magelang, Central Java.

Worked since November 2023 with a length of 781.2 meters by the implementing contractor PT Yasa Patria Perkasa, the progress of the Canguk FO has reached 86.5 percent as of October 28, 2024 and is targeted for completion by the end of this year.

Direktur Jenderal Bina Marga Kementerian PU Rachman Arief Dienaputra mengatakan, pembangunan infrastruktur konektivitas diperlukan agar mobilitas barang, jasa dan manusia lebih efisien.

The existence of FO Canguk has been highly anticipated by the public because it will unravel the congestion node due to traffic meetings from the direction of Semarang, Yogyakarta, Salatiga and Magelang City as well as support the connectivity of the Borobudur Super Priority Tourism Destination (DPSP).

With smoother connectivity, it is hoped that it can increase regional economic growth, thus helping the process of accelerating development in the region.

"The construction of the Canguk FO will facilitate connectivity and traffic accessibility. In addition, it also provides alternatives for residents to increase economic productivity," said Rachman Arief in a written statement, quoted on Tuesday, October 29.

FO Canguk was built on a congestion node due to traffic meetings from four directions, namely Jalan Nasional Soekarno Hatta and Jalan Urip Sumoharjo with the provincial roads of Magelang-Salatiga and Jalan Telaga Warna which are district roads to Magelang City.

The construction of the Canguk FO will increase the road capacity from the original two lanes to four lanes.

The Salatiga (Kopeng) lane is equipped with a 16-meter long underpass and a 765.29-meter connecting road in each direction.

The budget uses the Multi Years Contract (MYC) scheme for 2023-2024 at a cost of around IDR 99.6 billion.

This value is used for the installation of a secondary compound drill and a 80 cm diameter premiumr, the work of a concrete drill pole with a diameter of 800 mm, cement concrete pavement and layered latent work.
