JAKARTA - The Jakarta Province City Parks and Forests Service (Distamhut) carries out tree pruning in five areas simultaneously. This step is to anticipate the peak of the rainy season and the potential for strong winds that are predicted to occur until the end of the year.

"This is a preventive measure to ensure the safety of residents and road users," said Head of Distamhut Fajar Sauri, quoted from his written statement, Saturday, November 15.

In addition to pruning, tree rejuvenation is also carried out in six priority locations that have a high level of mobility. Fajar went directly to carry out monitoring.

The following are the six priority areas:

1. Jalan Panjang, Kebon Jeruk;2. Jalan Prof. Moh. Yamin Sutan Syahrir, Menteng;3. Jalan TB Simatupang, Pasar Minggu;4. Jalan Lake Sunter Selatan, Tanjung Priok;5. Jalan Dr. KRT Radjiman Widyodiningrat, Cakung; and6. Jalan MT. Haryono, Tebet

Fajar ensured that all tree pruning and rejuvenation activities were carried out at night or weekends. The goal is to prevent the mobility of residents.

As for routine activities, it has also been carried out every Wednesday. "From January to early November, we have carried out 63,444 trees and 6,513 trees have gone through health checks," said Fajar.

In addition, Distamhut carries out risk mapping using spatial data collection, visual inspection, and measurement of the condition of the title and root. Trees categorized as high risk receive special treatment such as intensive care, reducing the mass of the title, installing the steward to recommendations for tree replacement if deemed dangerous for safety.

Then coordination was also strengthened with sub-districts and sub-districts to accelerate early detection of lopsided, broken, or disturbing tree reports. All reports submitted through the complaint channel are officially followed up in a maximum of 1x24 hours, especially in extreme weather situations.
