BENGKULU - The Regency Government (Pemkab) of Lebong, Bengkulu Province, is currently working on handling landslide-prone points on the Curup-Muara Aman Cross Road, causing transportation access to the area and others to be cut off.
Deputy Regent of Lebong Fahrurozi while inspecting the landslide that buried the body of Jalan Lintas Curup-Muara Aman, Lebong Regency, precisely in Rimbo Pengadang Village, Rimbo Pengadang District, Saturday, said the location of this landslide had just been cleared after the incident on Friday afternoon (26/4), but the next day it collapsed again.
"For the temporary solution, we will cut the cliffs as a new road, because this route is prone to landslides and subsidence roads due to being splashed with water," he said.
He explained that the landslide that occurred in Rimbo Pengadang Village had caused the access road connecting Lebong Regency to Rejang Lebong and its surroundings to be completely cut off.

The landslide material that buried the provincial road, he said, was quite thick, reaching four meters with a pile length of up to 50 meters, so cleaning it requires heavy equipment.
To clean up the landslide material, his party has deployed one unit of heavy equipment, then added one unit of heavy equipment from the Rejang Lebong Regency Government and from the Bengkulu Provincial Government.
According to him, the Lebong Regency Government itself has planned to continue the opening of alternative roads connecting Lebong Regency with Rejang Lebong which are located on the Lake Liang-Tes road, and Tes to Rejang Lebong.
Namun rencana itu, kata dia, masih terkendala dengan anggarannya yang cukup besar, sehingga diperlukan kucuran dana dari Pemerintah Pusat (APBN).
Previously, a landslide on Jalan Lintas Curup-Muara Aman, Lebong Regency also occurred on Friday afternoon (26/4), at least six points. The worst is in the Talang Ratu Village area and Rimbo Pengadang Village, Rimbo Pengadang District.
This road access link between Lebong Regency and Rejang Lebong was cut off for four hours. As for the incident on Saturday morning (27/4) until 15.00 WIB afternoon, vehicles, both two and four wheels, could not be passed.
