TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The Cipali toll road management, Astra Tol Cipali, announced that it will fix the section of the toll road that has sustained major damage at the 122+400 kilometer stretch. The stretch of road had initially collapsed into the ground due to floods weakening the road’s ground structure.
“We have coordinated with contractors to conduct maintenance at the KM 122+400 toll road section,” said Astra Tol Cipali director of operations, Agung Prasetyo, in his written statement on February 9.
The maintenance work is expected to last until two weeks and the damaged toll road section will temporarily be replaced by paving an alternate route at the median point.
Earlier reports revealed that the Cipali toll road section had endured high-intensity rainfall which eventually affected the ground that the toll road was built over. The flow of traffic is currently moved to the road section beside it which forces the toll road to implement a “contraflow” traffic system.
