JAKARTA - The Batam Concession Agency (BP), Riau Islands, stated that the Sei Ladi flyover budget reached IDR 132 billion.

After the Groundbreaking of the First Groundbreaking of the Sei Ladi Fly Over Project in Batam, Riau Islands, Head of BP Batam Muhammad Rudi said the budget came from non-tax state revenues (PNBP) for the 2023-2024 fiscal year.

"This uses PNBP, this 2024 budget year must be completed. The length of the bridge is 120 meters," he said, quoting Antara.

Rudi conveyed that the construction of an overpass in the Sei Ladi area was one of the efforts to unravel congestion at that point.

In addition, the construction of flyovers is also an attraction for investors to invest in more and more in Batam City.

"So, all of our investment needs will prepare, one of which is this flyover, because industrial estates in Batam City have been scattered everywhere, in Sagulung, Yellow Face, and Nongsa and others," he said.

According to him, road infrastructure is the main access to cut logistics costs for goods exported from Batam through the exit of Batu Ampar Port and Hang Nadim Airport.

"We continue to be committed to preparing all infrastructure for smooth traffic," said Rudi.

Commitment Making Officer (PPK) of the Sei Ladi Boy Zasmita Flyover Project said the infrastructure project is targeted for completion by the end of 2024.

Meanwhile, the starting point is the flyover from the San Dona Housing and ends at the Tanonghoa Batam Marga Funeral Home.

"God willing, we will start from the beginning of 2024, we will target the end of the year," said Boy.

He conveyed that the length of the Sei Ladi flyover bridge is about 120 meters with a bridge shortfall at both ends of about 60 meters each.

The width of this flyover is 10.5 meters wide with 3 lanes.

"This flyover is specifically for the vehicle lane from the Sekupang direction towards the Batam Center," said Boy.
