Jakarta Administration to Ban Overpass Advertisements Following Pasar Minggu Accident

"When the contract has ended, we will build an overpass like the one we have at the Hotel Indonesia traffic circle. So, the bridge must be clear and open, there will be no billboards that disrupt the airflow. This will also address incidents involving robbery and sexual abuse," Ahok said at Jakarta City Hall.

Ahok added, all overpasses that are used by TransJakarta passengers will now be managed by the Jakarta Transportation Agency. Ahok also said that he rejected several proposals from advertising agencies who offered to repair the broken bridges in exchange for billboard permits.

The Jakarta administration will also inspect all overpasses across the city before proposing that they be repaired. If deemed unsuitable, the repair costs will be funded by both the regional budget and the developer.
