        "summary": "A road collapse in Depok on 29 May 2026 caused severe traffic congestion along the University of Indonesia (UI) access route, with queues extending to Tanjung Barat in South Jakarta. The 3-metre deep hole, which reappeared after daytime repairs, forced authorities to close one lane, reducing traffic to a single lane. Emergency responders and the Jakarta Water Resources Agency temporarily sealed the crater with steel plates after filling it with stones and soil.",
