Flyover Pesing Shut for 3 Weekends, Daan Mogot Snarls
Traffic toward Grogol has crawled since the Cengkareng traffic light as all vehicles are diverted to the surface road.
The full closure of the Flyover Pesing on Jalan Daan Mogot in West Jakarta caused a long traffic jam on Saturday (14/11), especially toward Grogol. Heavy congestion was seen from the Cengkareng traffic light intersection to the junction leading to Jalan Pangeran Tubagus Angke under the flyover. The slowdown came after all vehicles that normally use the flyover, including TransJakarta buses, trucks and private cars, were diverted to the arterial road. The condition of the lower road, which passes several intersections, rail crossings and U-turn points, also slowed traffic further. DKI's Dinas Bina Marga has divided the repair work into three phases: 13-15 November, 20-22 November and 27-29 November, each starting at 22.00 WIB until 24.00 WIB on the last day.
