BOGOR - Governor of West Java (Jabar) Ridwan Kamil hopes that the Otto Iskandar Dinata Bridge (Otista), which is currently under construction and is being widened, will become a new icon in the center of Bogor City.
Ridwan Kamil said the West Java Provincial Government had allocated a budget of Rp52.6 billion for the rebuilding of the Otista Bridge which would be wider than before.
"We will rebuild, we will widen it, until the end of the year, or sooner, we will see traffic very smoothly, God willing, the economy will increase and the bridge can become a new icon for the community or tourists who come to Bogor City. I entrust it, hopefully it will run smoothly," said Ridwan Kamil as reported by ANTARA, Friday, July 21.
He hopes that the smooth traffic at the end of the year in the center of Bogor City will run smoothly from the previous narrowing at the Otista Bridge.
"Today I inspect the needs of the people of Bogor City, namely the smooth running of traffic on Jalan Otista, where there is a narrowing because the bridge is narrow, yes, the legacy of the colonial era," he said.
The Bogor City Government is pursuing the progress of the construction of the Otista Bridge in the city center, which is now under drilling for the foundation building stage of eight points, in order to be able to support the traffic of tram transportation modes in the future.
