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.
