JAKARTA - The Sustainable Mobility Coalition consisting of the Indonesian Bike To Work (B2W) cyclist community, the Pedestrian Coalition, the Road Safety Association, and the Committee for the Elimination of Pambal Gasoline criticized the riding activities with the Governor of DKI Jakarta Pramono Anung and 400 cyclists which will take place on Saturday, April 19.
President of B2W Indonesia, Hendro Subroto said that his party rejected the bicycle route that would cross the Casablanca Nontol Flyover (JLNT) at the event entitled GatheringRide with Mas Pram.
This was revealed in an event preparation meeting held by the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency by inviting the cyclists community some time ago.
"Instead of discussing, we actually became spectators of the presentation of a mature and ready-to-eat concept. Moreover, what was presented shocked us, the cycling event will go through JLNT Casablanca Street, even two rounds," Hendro told reporters, Tuesday, April 15.
During the meeting, Hendro said that his party had conveyed the rejection of the use of JLNT as a riding route for the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency because the route was not intended for two-wheeled vehicles.
"This rejection is not without basis. The existing regulations have clearly prohibited bicycles from crossing JLNT, not because bicycles are not important, but because safety must take precedence," said Hendro.
Previously, the Head of the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency, Syafrin Liputo, said that the Gathering with Mas Pram was a gathering activity while cycling after Eid al-Fitr with the cyclists community in Jakarta.
"There will be road closures, so we will close traffic engineering management on Saturday. The participants are approximately 400 cyclists who will later participate in the community in Jakarta," said Syafrin.
