JAKARTA - PT Kereta Api Indonesia (Persero) Daop 1 Jakarta carried out a geometric repair of the railway track at the JPL 14 Bukit Duri Puteran Road crossing, South Jakarta, so that road users are asked to temporarily avoid the area to anticipate traffic congestion during the work.
KAI Daop 1 Jakarta Public Relations Manager, Franoto Wibowo, in a statement in Jakarta, Sunday, said that the work was part of a program to improve the safety and reliability of railway infrastructure to ensure that the condition of the railway line remains safe and optimal for train travel operations.
The work carried out includes adjusting the elevation of the road surface around the rail, leveling the road contour, and improving construction in the crossing area.
"With the adjustment of construction and road elevation, it is hoped that the track conditions will be safer, more comfortable, and will not cause interference to passing vehicles," said Franoto.
During the work process, the crossing condition is still in the compaction stage so that some areas have not been paved.
In addition, there are still work materials around the location that have the potential to cause a slowdown in vehicle traffic.
Franoto said that the paving work on the crossing area would be carried out on May 18, 2026, as the final stage of completing the work on improving the geometry of the railway track.
Therefore, KAI Daop 1 Jakarta appeals to the public to be more careful when passing through the work site, obey temporary signs and instructions from officers in the field.
KAI Daop 1 Jakarta also appeals to road users to use other alternative routes if possible for a while to avoid traffic congestion around JPL 14 and support the smooth process of work.
"We appeal to the public to temporarily avoid the JPL 14 area and use other alternative routes so that people's travel remains smooth and repair work can run optimally and on time," said Franoto.
