JAKARTA - Acting Governor of West Java, Bey Machmudin, said the Bogor-Ciawi-Sukabumi (Bocimi) toll road segment which collapsed due to landslides would be repaired and completed in three days. That way, the route will still be able to be passed by travelers.

"The landslide of the Bocimi Toll Road, the Minister of PUPR asked for temporary repairs in the past three days," said Bey Machmudin in a statement from the West Java Provincial Government.

Previously, Bey and the Minister of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR), Basuki Hadimuljono, reviewed the landslide disaster at the Bocimi Toll Road Section 2, precisely at KM 64+600 A towards Jakarta to Sukabumi.

Bey said that after being repaired in the next three days, the Bocimi Section 2 Toll Road could not be passed in two directions.

This section can temporarily only be passed by one route from Jakarta to Sukabumi.

"While it will not be passed for two directions. So, only one direction to Sukabumi," he said.

Bey ensured that before it could be passed by vehicles on Tuesday, April 8, 2024, a feasibility test would first be carried out. This is done to provide a sense of security and comfort to the community.

"Probably next Monday or Tuesday, next week, it will be opened. However, it will be assessed first and its strength," said Bey.

Arterial Road Repair

In addition to repairing the Bocimi Toll Road which experienced landslides, at the same time the West Java Provincial Government together with the PUPR Center in Sukabumi would also repair the damaged alternal route.

This is done so that there is no congestion on arterial roads due to the Bocimi Toll Road Section 2 which cannot be passed in two directions.

"The West Java Provincial Government is also working with the Ministry of PUPR, especially the hall in Sukabumi, to repair alternative roads. So, there should be no buildup on arterial roads because there is a disaster on the Bocimi Toll Road," said Bey.
