MEDAN - Medan Mayor Bobby Nasution stated that the operation of the Amplas Type A passenger terminal, which is scheduled for this year, will control bus pul-pules on Jalan Sisingamangaraja, Medan.

"We hope that all buses pick up and drop off passengers at the terminal, and no longer at bus stations along Jalan Sisingamangaraja," Bobby explained in Medan, quoted by Antara, Tuesday, March 1.

He emphasized this, accompanied by a number of related OPD leaders after receiving a visit from the North Sumatra Province Directorate General of Land Transportation at Medan City Hall.

Medan Mayor Bobby Nasution hopes that the operation of the terminal can overcome the congestion that has occurred so far due to the existence of city transportation buses within the province and inter-provincial city transportation.

His party asked the Directorate General of Land Transportation of North Sumatra Province to be able to carry out orders that were not only enthusiastic at the beginning, but slowed down later.

"So far, we have had difficulty controlling the bus pul-pul. Therefore, the directorate must be serious, so that no more buses will pick up and drop off passengers on their bus decks," said Bobby.

Meanwhile, the Head of the Land Transport Management Center for the North Sumatra Batara Region, revealed that the physical construction of the Sandpaper Passenger Terminal has reached 70.11 percent.

The physical construction process of this terminal can be carried out quickly because the materials are already on site, and according to the contract, it is entering its third year which will end in November 2022.

To note, the revitalization of the Medan City Sandpaper Passenger Terminal costs Rp45 billion in three stages of development from 2020 to 2022 referring to the Minister of Transportation Regulation No. 132/2015 concerning the Implementation of Road Transport Passenger Terminals.

"We are trying to finish the construction before the contract ends, so the Sandpaper Passenger Terminal can already be operated," said Batara.
