New overpass to be tested

JAKARTA (JP): The newly-built overpass linking Jl. Kebayoran Baru and Jl. Ciledug Raya in Kebayoran Lama, South Jakarta, will be tested on Monday.

J.P. Sepang, head of the City Land Traffic Control Agency, yesterday urged motorists passing by the facility to abide by existing traffic rules.

During the try-out, several traffic changes will go into effect.

Motorists from Lebak Bulus and Pondok Indah heading toward Blok M, Mayestik and Kebayoran Baru should use the north side of the overpass and Jl. Kebayoran Baru and Jl. Pakubuwono.

Those going from Lebak Bulus to Jl. Ciledug Raya and Tangerang should use the north side of the overpass and take a U-turn at Velbak before passing by the overpass.

Sepang said that the traffic from Permata Hijau, Pejompongan and Jl. Teuku Nyak Arif to the direction of Jl. Ciledug should use the north lane of Jl. Kebayoran Baru, take a U-turn in Velbak and pass by the overpass.

Motorists from Jl. Ciledug and Tangerang heading for Permata Hijau and Pejompongan are urged to pass by the overpass and take the west lane and turn left on Jl. Teuku Nyak Arif. Those intending to go to Kebayoran Baru, Blok M and Mayestik can go through the overpass to Jl. Pakubuwono VI, while others heading for Pondok Indah or Lebak Bulus can go through the overpass and take a U-turn in Velbak before turning left on to Jl. Sultan Iskandar Muda. (hhr)
