TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - A landslide triggered by heavy rains from Saturday night to early Sunday blocked a section of Semarang-Solo toll road in Semarang District, Central Java.
The section of the toll road covered by landslide was not far from the rest area at kilometer 429 of the toll road, Chief of the Semarang District Disaster Mitigation Agency (BPBD) Heru Subroto said.
The landslide forced the toll road operator to divert vehicles heading to Semarang to non-toll road via Ungaran toll gate.
"The vehicles coming from Solo had been diverted out of the toll road via Ungaran toll gate,": he said.
By Sunday morning, officers of the toll road operator had got rid of the mud covering the section of the toll road, he said.
