Traffic in Ciputat

Traffic in Ciputat

From Kompas

I am complaining about the lack of sensitivity the Tangerang
administration has shown to the problem of horrible roads around
the Ciputat market. Since the market burned down over a year ago,
the roads in the area have deteriorated and, as a result, the
traffic has become horrendous. The market kiosks occupy most of
the road leaving very little space for vehicles. Congestion is
particularly bad on the Jl. Ariaputra, which leads to Serua
village.

Jl. KH Dewantara, which connects the main road with Jombang,
cannot be used because the only entrance beside the Ciputat
mosque is blocked. Drivers must find alternative routes through
the housing complexes and villages, disturbing the peace and
damaging the private roads.

Surprisingly, the Tangerang administration has done nothing to
improve the situation.
