JAKARTA - Embankment or plaster on the right side of the Kalibaru River, Kramat Jati District, East Jakarta, has broken along 2 meters, Thursday, November 30.

As a result, the flow of water coming from Katulampa dam, Bogor, overflowed and overflowed onto Jalan Raya Bogor, Hek T-junction, Kramat Jati, East Jakarta.

The broken condition of the embankment has made residents of Jalan Rahayu, RT 01/01, worried about the floods that hit their residential areas. Residents are worried when it rains and there is a shipment of water from Katulampa, Bogor.

"Every time it rains, it always floods, if the river overflows, it is certain (floods). Earlier from dawn when I woke up, it was flooded. The water overflowed from Kalibaru, the embankment broke," said Robi (38), a resident of Jalan Rahayu at the location.

From VOI's observation at the location, the Kalibaru water flow was quite heavy. The volume of flowing water almost reached the existing sheet piles or embankments. In fact, the water flow also continues to overflow through the broken embankment or sheet pile.

The high flow of water continues to flow inundate Jalan Raya Bogor, Hek T-junction, Kramat Jati. Meanwhile, the East Jakarta Water Resources Sub-dept. (SDA) task force was seen at the Kalibaru River location.

They are busy making temporary embankments from bamboo and plywood. However, there has been no permanent improvement in the area.
