JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan inaugurated the Bio Trans Park on Jalan Letjen Suprapto, Sumur Batu, Kemayoran, Central Jakarta. In this inauguration, Anies admitted that he wanted to make Jakarta a greener city by increasing green open space (RTH) and blue open space (RTB).
The efforts made by the DKI Provincial Government include turning facilities that were previously not public locations into park areas, as well as water reservoirs when there is an increase in water volume, especially during the rainy season.
"So, this is a breakthrough to make Jakarta an environmentally friendly city with an approach to solving the problem of green open space. Hopefully, this place has multiple functions, namely first, flood control, second, green open space, and third, a place for residents to feel a space that can make them close to nature," said Anies at the location, Friday, December 17.
Anies wants the Trans Bio Park to be an example to realize various other parks so that they can be realized in every area in Jakarta.
"We want Jakarta to be a green, friendly, and pleasant city for all living things. This is not only for humans, but also for plants, animals, so they can live in this city, together in a healthy ecosystem," he explained. .
In addition, the Head of the DKI Jakarta Provincial Parks and Urban Forest Service, Suzi Marsitawati, explained that the Trans Bio Park was built on land owned by the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government with a total area of 2,500 square meters.
Then, it consists of RTH covering an area of 1,483 square meters and RTB covering an area of 522 square meters which can accommodate approximately 3,000 cubic meters of water.
"Historically, some of this land is a former gas station that has been repurposed into green open land. This has also been carried out in the handover process from the Regional Asset Management Agency to the Central Jakarta City Parks and Forest Administration Sub-department," said Suzi.
For information, the RTH Bio Trans Park is planted with fruit trees to attract poultry/birds, including buni trees, gowok, jamblang, harp, rukem, salam, avocado, cipedak, bisbul, etc.
The green open space facilities include pedestrians, park benches, and bioswales which also function to reduce inundation. The development of RTH and RTB (embung) is carried out independently by the City Parks and Forests Sub-Department and the Central Jakarta City Administration of Water Resources.
