TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Minister of State-owned Enterprises (SOEs) Rini Soemarno expected the revitalization project of Bogor Train Station including the parking space and its facilities could be started this year, as well as the low-cost apartment (rusun) for the low to middle-class community.
“We will build a low-cost apartment for people who have low to middle income, so their transportation cost will be fewer if their residence is near the station. We’ll back the permit issuance,” she said while inspecting Jakarta-Bogor Commuterline today, August 18.
According to Rini, the station caters 180,000 passengers daily while its capacity is only 30,000 people and the parking areas for the motorcycle is also insufficient.
Minister Rini said the revitalization program on Bogor Station had been planned since last year but hindered by the permit. She then urged Bogor administration to issue it even only some permits to immediately begin the project.
