        "summary": "The Jakarta Road Infrastructure Agency is rushing to complete four standard zebra crossings along Jalan Dr. Soepomo in Tebet, South Jakarta, with a target finish by the end of this week, following community backlash over unofficial artistic designs. Two of the crossings, located near Universitas Sahid and Sekolah Kinderfield, have already been finished as of Tuesday. While the popular Pac-Man themed crossing in front of Gereja Bukit Moria will be retained with considerations for its existing condition, it highlights tensions between grassroots urban art initiatives and official infrastructure standards.",
