JAKARTA - The DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency cut the sidewalk around the Central Jakarta Citywalk to prevent the narrowing of the bottleneck in front of the mall following the transfer of the turnaround.
"The sidewalk cut near Citywalk is in order to provide space for access from west to east which will later rotate under the Karet Bivak flyover, so there is usually a bottleneck," said Head of the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency (Dishub) Syafrin Liputo as reported by ANTARA, Wednesday, April 17.
In addition, with the cut of the sidewalk, the roads around the location will also increase. So that it makes it easier for vehicles to maneuver and enter the back-turn service.
"Therefore, plus the lane (as much as) one lane so that it is enough for vehicles to maneuver and enter the back-turn service," said Syafrin.
Previously, the Roads and Bridges and Equipment and Supplies Units of the DKI Jakarta Highways Agency had widened the road and closed the hole on Jalan KH Mas Mansyur, Central Jakarta (02/04). This effort was made in order to support the closure of the back lap in front of the Citywalk.
The process of widening the road using the scrap material or the rest of the construction materials is certain to have good quality. In addition, the widening of the road on Jalan KH Mas Mansyur was carried out by cutting the existing sidewalks slightly.
The hole under the Karet Bivak flyover is also closed to improve the safety and comfort of road users. With the widening of roads and the closure of these road holes, it is hoped that it can improve the smooth flow of traffic, security, and comfort of road users in the area.
