Pulo Gadung

Pulo Gadung bus terminal

From Media Indonesia

The intersections around Pulo Gadung are always clogged by traffic, particularly during peak hours. The housing estates around the terminal have contributed to the traffic jams. They are Kelapa Gading Permai, Kelapa Gading Pratama, Gading Lestari and Pegangsaan Dua Indah. The increasing number of buses and trucks entering and leaving Jakarta along the very narrow roads have added to the problem.

It is high time the Pulo Gadung terminal was moved to some other area. The space can be used to build cheap apartments that can be rented by drivers who live in the area.
