View all search resultsWest Java acting governor Bey Triadi Machmudin confirmed that the Finance Ministry has approved the construction of the Greater Bandung Light Rail Transit (LRT) project after a meeting between the two parties on Monday.
People living in the city and its surroundings will likely remain reliant on private vehicles, experts say, citing an urgent need for a drastic improvement of the public transportation system.
The Transportation Ministry has confirmed that wheel wear on the Greater Jakarta LRT system, resulting in the cancellation of 103 trips daily, was caused by design flaws in the rail tracks, particularly on tight, narrow curves that do not comply with Transportation Ministry Regulation No. 60/2012. Instead of rectifying the problematic rail designs on curves, however, the ministry is currently planning to revise the regulation to accommodate the existing rail designs.
KAI said the inundation was due to clogged pipes instead of damage to the newly built LRT station, which connects the National Narcotics Agency (BNN) building, the nearby TransJakarta (TJ) bus stop and another government-run office building across the highway.
