Busway, wrong solution for traffic

Published by admin | Filed under environment

Busway, well actually it is Trans Jakarta. It was built to reduce traffic jam in jakarta for some area. However, somehow the Trans Jakarta now intend to be the number one public transport to go everywhere. We can see from the added new project on North and South Jakarta. Some corridor for terminal was set up now and cause more traffic jam. It makes us feel uncomfortable during our journey to go home. Some people are starting to complaint about this. They think that on their area, busway is not necessary have to across. In fact, busway probably make it more worse the traffic because they have to cut half of the wide of the street which usually for 2 lines and now only can do one line.

Indonesian people already feel comfortable with car. I think it will be hard to change the habit.
