As many as 15 joint officers of PPSU, Satpol PP, Transportation Sub-agency and Bina Marga Task Force have been alerted to handle puddles on Jalan Pintu I TMII, Pinang Ranti, Makasar, East Jakarta, on Monday (10/19) afternoon.

Pinang Ranti Urban Village Haris Indrianto said puddles as high as 15-20 cm occurred, as the TMII connecting channel was unable to accommodate heavy rainwater. As a result, the water spilled out onto the road.

"Officers are sent to clean up waste in the channel," he expressed, Monday (10/19).

They were also assigned to manage traffic flow to avoid congestion. To anticipate similar condition, eight officers had been sent to monitor and clean the channel.

"The cleaning is started from in front of At Tien Mosque until intersection of Tamini Square," he stated.
