JAKARTA - The West Region Sulawesi Cross in Kasia Village, North Sumalata Gorontalo District, Gorontalo Province was cut off. This was due to the landslide that occurred on Saturday, March 29 in the morning at around 03.30 WITA.

"This landslide occurred in the early hours of the morning after heavy rainfall flushed the area since 20.00 WITA on Friday night. The rain was very heavy causing land and rocks to slide from the hills in Basulapa Hamlet," said the village head of Kasia Andri Usu quoting Antara.

He said the 30-meter-long landslide closed all roads causing traffic flow to be completely cut off.

Four-wheeled vehicles cannot pass this route, while the motorbike must be lifted but it is certain that it is very draining because the landslide field is quite heavy.

He said he had informed the condition of the cut off of the Sulawesi cross access to several Whatsapp groups.

"Currently we are waiting for help from Monano District. A heavy equipment owner from the area deployed a heavy equipment unit to help open the landslide material," he said.

Currently, Andri said, the TNI and Polri in the area are currently helping to secure roads due to the accumulation of vehicles to and from the district capital. Especially vehicles across Sulawesi from and to Central Sulawesi Province.

There is no alternative way so the accumulation of vehicles from two directions is unavoidable.
