No anticipation for congestion

No anticipation for congestion

From Jayakarta

Traffic congestion seems to have become worse this year. And sadly, such conditions do not seem to have been anticipated. Traffic jams occur at any time of the day, mornings, afternoons and evenings.

I think the main cause of traffic jams are drivers' unruly behavior and the little anticipation traffic officers have for possible congestion in traffic trouble spots.

Traffic in Depok, West Java is congested daily around its terminal area. This is because of stationary public minibuses clogging the area around the Depok Baru railway station. Another contributing factor to traffic jams is potholed roads. The station was announced as a pilot terminal.

The problem has repeatedly been reported in the media but there has never been a response.

I resent the use of the term pilot terminal.
