The Lebak Regency Government, through its Public Works and Spatial\nPlanning Agency (PUPR), has allocated approximately Rp 75 billion for\nthe construction and improvement of 53 road sections in 2026. The funds\nwill cover 11 regency roads and 42 village arterial roads spread across\nvarious areas in Lebak Regency.<\/p>\n
Acting Head of the Lebak PUPR Agency, Dade Yan Apriandi, stated that\nthe 2026 road management budget is divided into two work groups: regency\nroads and village arterial roads. According to him, the development is\nan effort to strengthen connectivity within the Lebak Regency area.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe value is approximately Rp 75 billion. It is divided between\nregency roads and village arterial roads,\u201d Dade said in a written\nstatement on Thursday (25\/6\/2026).<\/p>\n
He detailed that for the 11 regency road sections, the prepared\nbudget reaches around Rp 47.4 billion, with a total handling length of\n13.3 kilometres. Meanwhile, for the 42 village arterial road sections, a\nbudget of around Rp 27.8 billion has been allocated, with a total work\nlength of 21.05 kilometres.<\/p>\n
\u201cThus, the total number of road sections targeted by the 2026 road\ninfrastructure development and improvement programme reaches 53\nsections, consisting of regency roads and village arterial roads,\u201d he\nsaid.<\/p>\n
Dade explained that the implementation of road works in Lebak is\ncarried out in stages, in line with the tender and contract processes\nthat adjust to the readiness of each work package. For regency roads,\nout of the 11 planned sections, 9 sections have been contracted and have\nentered the implementation phase, while 2 other sections are still not\ncontracted.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe regency road works are progressing in stages. Some have been\ncontracted and are in the implementation phase, and some have even been\ncompleted. However, there are still two sections that have not been\ncontracted,\u201d he revealed.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, for village arterial roads, the contract progress is also\nnot yet fully complete. Out of the total 42 sections, 30 sections have\nbeen contracted, while 12 other sections are still awaiting the contract\nprocess.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor village arterial roads, some have not been implemented because\nthey have not been contracted. Some have been contracted, and among\nthose that have been contracted, some works have also been completed,\u201d\nDade said.<\/p>\n
If combined, the total length of roads handled by the Lebak Regency\nGovernment in 2026 reaches 34.35 kilometres. The breakdown is 13.3\nkilometres for regency roads and 21.05 kilometres for village arterial\nroads.<\/p>\n
This road management is considered strategic because it targets two\nneeds at once: strengthening routes under regency authority and\nimproving access to village arterial roads, which are the lifeblood of\ncommunity activities.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe road infrastructure plays an important role in supporting\nresidents\u2019 mobility, the distribution of agricultural products, access\nto education, and connectivity to basic services in rural areas,\u201d he\nexplained.<\/p>\n
He stated that with a substantial budget allocation, the Lebak\nRegency Government aims for the road construction to encourage equitable\ninfrastructure distribution between regions and accelerate village\neconomic growth.<\/p>\n
The injection of tens of billions of rupiah for road construction in\n2026 is part of the Lebak Regency Government\u2019s strategy to accelerate\nequitable infrastructure distribution. Not only targeting main routes\nunder regency authority, the local government is also paying great\nattention to village arterial roads so that the benefits of development\nare felt more deeply in remote areas.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf all work packages can be completed according to target, this\nproject will become one of the strategic road infrastructure programmes\nin Lebak in 2026, especially in strengthening accessibility, cutting\nmobility barriers, and supporting the economic activities of communities\nat the village level,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/lebak-regency-government-allocates-rp-75-billion-for-construction-of-53-road-sections-1782366897", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
