he Jakarta administration will begin the construction of the transit-oriented development (TOD) at Dukuh Atas in Setiabudi, South Jakarta, at the end of this year, instead of on Jan. 30 as previously reported.
Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan said the construction would start after the design of the TOD, which will be built on a plot of land where the Blora traditional market used to stand, was ready.
“The construction design should be finished by the end of this year, while the construction project is expected to be completed in 2020,” Anies said.
“We are awaiting people’s participation in planning the area. Don’t hesitate to send us [the city administration] any ideas that can be implemented at the TOD,” he said on Thursday.
Earlier this year, the Jakarta administration started building several other TODs across the city, namely in Senen, Juanda and Tanah Abang in Central Jakarta, and Tanjung Barat in South Jakarta. The construction of another TOD at Pondok Cina in Depok, West Java, has also begun. (vla)
