JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung said the DKI Provincial Government will also demolish the broken monorail pole on Jalan Asia Afrika, Senayan, Central Jakarta, in the near future.
The demolition of the pillars in the Senayan area will be carried out after the execution on Jalan HR Rasuna Said is completed. However, Pramono admitted that not all of the former monorail project pillars in Senayan would be demolished. Some of the pillars will be left and arranged for billboard placement.
"What we are prioritizing now is what is in this place. If this is going well because the ones in Senayan are indeed some, we will definitely dismantle them, but some will be left for videotron and so on for billboards," said Pramono at the inauguration of the dismantling of the pole and arrangement of the area on Jalan Rasuna Said, Wednesday, January 14.
Today, the demolition was marked by the cutting of one of the monorail poles that had been abandoned for more than two decades. The process was carried out with a number of parties, ranging from former DKI Jakarta Governor Sutiyoso, Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta Rano Karno, Head of the DKI Jakarta High Prosecutor's Office Patris Yusrian Jaya, to representatives of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK).
"Hopefully this will be a sign that Jakarta is indeed arranging itself to improve the public facilities owned by Jakarta," said Pramono.
A total of 109 monorail poles will be dismantled and rearranged to the end of Jalan Rasuna Said. Pramono believes that this arrangement will have an impact on improving the quality of the road and is expected to reduce congestion in the area.
The demolition and arrangement will be carried out at night to minimize traffic disruption. Pramono ensured that no lane closures would take place during the process and had asked the Road Construction Agency and the Transportation Agency to regulate traffic in the area.
"The work will be carried out at night. So that there is no closure of the lane," he said.
Head of the DKI Jakarta Transportation Office Heru Suwondo said that the work of dismantling the pillars to arranging the road and sidewalk is scheduled to take place until September. However, the Provincial Government opens the opportunity for acceleration if the conditions on the ground are possible.
"For the overall arrangement of roads and sidewalks, we schedule it until September. But yes, we try to do it if it can be accelerated, we will accelerate it," said Heru.
Heru explained that the arrangement in the Kuningan area, which coincided with the demolition of the pillars, included the repair of the road body, water channels, sidewalks, parks, public street lighting, and other supporting facilities along Jalan Rasuna Said.
"Of course we will arrange the roads and sidewalks, and at the same time with the arrangement of the drainage. So insyaallah after it becomes all, this is if there is a puddle that has flowed into the drainage along the road," he said.
