More traffic congestion

From Bisnis Indonesia

As a loyal citizen of Tangerang, Banten, I would like to appeal to the Jakarta provincial administration about the construction of the overpass extending from the T-junction of Green Garden to the railroad crossing of Pesing be speedily finished to relieve traffic congestion.

For more than a year, the construction has caused daily traffic jams on the roads between the suspension bridge in Cengkareng and the Indosiar building on Jl. Daan Mogot in West Jakarta.

Strangely, the traffic police in charge are just seen occasionally in the morning, while their presence actually hinders the smooth flow of motor vehicles, mostly comprising wide-bodied public transport vehicles and container trucks.

The traffic is worsened by the public transport minivans, which will stop anywhere to pick up passengers, and unfair cops who let certain cars pass first, which often triggers arguments.
