Damaged roads

 Damaged roads

The number of damaged roads linking Jakarta with West Java has certainly provoked complaints from locals and road users. Take, for example, the roads in Bekasi and Tangerang, which have been a focus on the media.

The poor condition of these roads not only jeopardizes road safety but also gives a squalid impression. Moreover, the condition will get worse when it rains. The roads are transformed into water pools or puddles, which can easily cause accidents if motorists are not careful.

No wonder if some people question why there are so many damaged roads and why repairs do not seem to last long. The government should pay special attention to these problems.

In my opinion, the roads should be repaired using the right sort of asphalt, stones, and sands. Repairs should be done carefully so that the roads can be prevented from constants damaged. Otherwise, the repairs would be useless.
