Maintaining Pedestrian Access Amidst the MRT Project

The construction of an MRT station in the Thamrin area of Jakarta has led to parts of the road being converted into emergency pedestrian walkways. These temporary facilities are designed to remain safe and comfortable for pedestrians, including those with disabilities. The walkways are equipped with guiding blocks to assist visually impaired individuals navigating the construction zone. Protective roofing and barriers have also been installed along the pedestrian path to shield walkers from potential falling objects during the station’s development. In addition to prioritising safety, the emergency pedestrian walkway features decorative elements with a natural theme to provide a sense of comfort for the public walking through the Thamrin area while the project is underway.
