SIDOARJO - The Sidoarjo Regency Government is targeting the Flyover project in Krian and Pull to be completed by the end of 2023 to unravel congestion that often occurs in the area.

Sidoarjo Regent Ahmad Muhdlor said the construction of the flyover in Krian was carried out to reduce traffic jams at the end of train crossings and intersections in the area.

"Currently, the progress of the work has reached 83 percent and by the end of this year it can be completed and the benefits can be felt by the community," he said as quoted by ANTARA, Thursday, September 14.

Likewise, the flyover in Tarik also reached construction progress of 76 percent, which means it is in accordance with the schedule for work so that by the end of this year it can be enjoyed by the community

"The physical condition of the two Krian and Tarik flyover projects has reached a satisfactory progress, namely 83 percent for the Krian flyover, while the Pull flyover has reached 76 percent. Currently, the flyover has been connected to one another, including casting above the bridge surface has also been carried out," he said.

He is optimistic that these two magnificent projects will be completed by the end of the year, so that later January 2024 will enter the fit test.

"Currently, the work is just a matter of installing public street lighting (PJU) along the flyover and other final works," he said.

Head of the Cipta Karya Settlement Housing and Spatial Planning Office of Sidoarjo Regency as well as Head of the Preparation Acceleration Team for the Development of the Pull and Krian flyovers, Bachruni Aryawan, said that the progress of the two flyover projects is included in the stage of completing the construction of a pedestrian bridge (JPO) right on the east side of the flyover and other final completions such as the construction of a water channel.

"We continue to accelerate for the flyover target to be used in January 2024," he said.

Bachruni also apologized to the public if there were some diversions for the completion of the flyover project on time.

"We apologize if the public is still disturbed by the work on this project, but we urge them to pass through alternative roads for a while," he said.
