Medan to be square city

Medan to be square city

MEDAN, North Sumatra: Development of this city will be focused
more on the largely slum area in the north, Mayor H. Bahtiar
Djafar said.

Bahtiar said this will bring about a better balance to the
city and practically turn Medan into a square city.

The Medan Urban Development Project contains a number of
proposals for the construction of infrastructure in the northern
part of the city, he said as reported by Antara.

They include an outer ring road, three overpass bridges and
the rehabilitation of about 24 km of the Deli River. (emb)
