SEAToday.com, Jakarta - The Directorate General of Railways (DJKA) of the Ministry of Transportation (Kemenhub) through the Bandung Class I Railway Engineering Center (BTP Bandung) has completed the construction of a double track worth Rp2.2 trillion on the Bogor-Sukabumi section. This double track has a total track length of 26.6 km.
“Over the past 10 years, we have completed the construction of a double track between Bogor Paledang-Cicurug, construction and arrangement of stations and improvement of railway safety on the Bogor-Sukabumi crossing, with a total budget of Rp2.2 trillion,” said Head of BTP Bandung Endang Setiawan in Jakarta, Saturday (5/10).
Endang said that in addition to the double track, over the past 10 years, construction and arrangement of stations along the Bogor-Sukabumi crossing have also been carried out to improve the quality of rail passenger services.
“The stations on the Bogor-Sukabumi crossing are also strategic areas close to tourist sites so we hope that people who want to vacation around Bogor or Sukabumi can take advantage of train transportation,” Endang explained.
