JAKARTA - PT Transportasi Jakarta (Transjakarta) has engineered a service route which includes diversion and shortening, especially for North Jakarta and West Jakarta areas that are affected by flooding and inundation.

"We are making service adjustments such as diversion and shortening for routes affected by inundation to ensure that customers can still use Transjakarta services safely and comfortably," said Head of Public Relations and CSR Transjakarta Ayu Wardhani, quoted by Antara, Wednesday, January 29.

These routes include the 2B route of Harapan Indah - Pulo Gadung, which has shortened its route to Bus Stop Airport - Pulo Gadung due to puddles around Transera.

Then, the JAK 27 route Rorotan - Pulo Gebang relation experienced a diversion route due to puddles around Jalan Karang Tengah.

Ayu said that while this route does not serve the stopping point or bus stop of At Taqwa School until the Karang Tengah T-junction.

In addition, Transjakarta also diverted the 3F route for the Kalideres - Senayan Bank DKI connection because there was a puddle of water around Jalan Raya Cengkareng.

"Meanwhile, the direction of Senayan Bank DKI does not serve the New Bridge Stop at the Damai Bus Stop and for the direction of Kalideres does not serve the Jelambar Bus Stop to the New Bridge Bus Stop," explained Ayu.

The diversion was also carried out in corridor 3 of the Kalideres - National Monument connection. Meanwhile, the direction of the National Monument does not serve the New Bridge Bus Stop until the Peace Stop and for the direction of Kalideres does not serve the Grogol Bus Stop until the New Bridge Bus Stop.

In addition, the SH1 route for Kalideres - Soekarno-Hatta offices also experienced route diversion due to puddles around Jalan Parimeter Utara.

"Meanwhile, Kalideres does not serve the Bus Stop Simpang Rawa Kompeni Raya," said Ayu.

He added that there are two routes that do not serve passengers, namely the JAK 24 route for the Senen - Pulo Gadung connection and the JAK 112 route: Tanah Merah - Pulo Gadung. This is because of the puddle of water on the route that the route passes.

Meanwhile, the DKI Jakarta Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) noted that floods hit 53 RT and 23 roads caused by heavy rains on Wednesday morning.
