The Yellow Troop of the South Jakarta Public Works Sub-agency handled the utility cables dangling on Jalan Widya Chandra VIII, Senayan Urban Village, Kebayoran Baru District.
Head of South Jakarta Public Works Sub-agency, Rifki Rismal said the utility cable is thought to have dangled and then broken after being caught by a passing vehicle.
Disturbing motorists
"Residents reported to us that a dangling cable had been disturbing motorists last night. This morning, we immediately handled it together to prevent further harm to road users," he said, Wednesday (7/8).
The South Jakarta Public Works Sub-agency deployed five Yellow Troop personnel from the Utilities Task Force and one ladder truck. They were also assisted by six Public Infrastructure and Facilities Management (PPSU) officers.
"Hopefully, the efforts we make can provide security and comfort to the community," he hoped.
Meanwhile, one of the local residents, Sanusi stated the dangling cable had caused a motorcyclist to fall the previous night.
"We hope that monitoring of utility cables can be carried out routinely so that incidents like this do not happen again," he admitted.
