PADANG - The Provincial Government of West Sumatra (West Sumatra) is targeting the repair of damaged provincial roads in this area to be completed ahead of Idul Fitri 1444 Hijriah.
"We are targeting road repairs to be completed ahead of Eid al-Fitr so that travelers will feel comfortable when passing through the area," said West Sumatra Governor Mahyeldi Ansharullah as reported by ANTARA, Thursday, March 2.
He said the related agency had conducted a road condition survey in Agam Regency and recorded damaged roads.
The road survey was also carried out in regencies and cities in West Sumatra a few days ago.
After the survey, repairs will be carried out using road maintenance funds in 2023.
"The road repairs will be carried out in the near future, because the relevant agencies have gone to the field to inspect the road," he said.
Regional Secretary of Agam Edi Busti said that he had conveyed to the Governor to propose that the road from Simpang Gudang to Padang Lua with a length of 76 kilometers be a national road.
"I have conveyed directly to the Governor, so that the provincial road section is proposed to become a national road," he said again.
By changing the status of the road to a national road, road repairs or upgrades will use the State Revenue and Expenditure Budget (APBN) funds.
Edi said that the capital city of Agam in Lubukbasung was the only one that was not traversed by the national road.
"There is no national road in the capital city of Agam and we continue to push the West Sumatra Provincial Government to propose it, because the road is a provincial asset," he said.
