KARAWANG - The Karawang Regency Government, West Java took the initiative to continue the construction process of the Walahar bridge, Ciampel District, which had been suspended for almost three years.
"We are taking the initiative to take over (the construction process). Previously, it was handled by the West Java Provincial Government, but now, it has not continued for almost three years," said Deputy Regent of Karawang Aep Syaepuloh after Gebyar Paten activities in Karawang, Antara, Wednesday, August 31.
The Walahar bridge construction activity began about three years ago, using the budget from the West Java Provincial Government of around Rp. 30 billion.
The Deputy Regent said that because the construction process had been suspended for a long time, the Karawang Regency Government took the initiative to take over and continue the construction process.
"The project for the construction of the Walahar bridge is a priority. But it has been stopped for almost three years. That's why we will take over," he said.
He conveyed, according to residents' reports, the Walahar bridge is important for public access. In addition, it is also access to Situ Cipule tourist attractions and alternatives to industrial areas.
"Next year the construction will continue, we will allocate a budget of around Rp40 billion," he said.
Furthermore, the district government will widen the road at the access point to the Walahar bridge.
Meanwhile, although there is a plan to take over the construction of the Walahar bridge, the Karawang Regency Government hopes that the Walahar bridge construction activities will continue with the West Java Provincial Government.
"But if it is not continued, it will be taken over for further construction," said the vice president.
