SOLO - Surakarta Mayor Gibran Rakabuming Raka continues to map out the problems in Solo that must be addressed immediately. Flood affairs are also a priority.

Gibran, the eldest son of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi), who relies on his blusukan style (unannounced inspections), took to the field to ensure that the handling of the problem was carried out immediately.

This blusukan Gibran also did during the rainy season. Armed with a purplish pink umbrella when it rained, Mas Gibran directly checked the viaduct in the Gilingan area, Banjarsari District, Solo, responding to the complaints of the residents.

"Many residents have complained about the condition of the viaduct in the Gilingan area because it is prone to flooding in the rainy season", said Gibran, Monday, March 8.

"This problem has occurred for a long time. If it rains heavily, the road will be flooded with water up to 90 cm which will impact on the disruption of traffic flow around Jalan Ahmad Yani", continued Jan Ethes Srinarendra's father.

From the direct review with the Head of DPU (Public Works Service) Endah Sutaresmi, Gibran will make the results of his blusukan a special note. Solutions are ready to work for the residents of Solo.

"I together with the Head of the DPU make this a special note, of course, the acceleration of drainage repairs must be done immediately", said Gibran.

Floods in the Gilingan Viaduct with a height of 90 cm due to heavy rains occurred on Sunday, March 7th. noon. Traffic flow was diverted because of the high water level.

It is noted that flooding in Viaduk Gilingan, Banjarsari, Solo is not a new problem but a classic problem that Gibran has promised to fix.
