Six workers of the East Jakarta Bina Marga Sub-agency have started repairing damaged roads along Jalan Mutiara Raya, which is an access road towards Pulogebang Rusunawa, Cakung, East Jakarta, on Sunday (2/20).

Road and Bridge Division Head, Budi Cahyo said those roads were damaged due to heavy rain and the passing truck.

"Due to rainy season, it is carried out gradually and is targeted to be complete next week," he said.

Thus far, the workers had repaired roads measuring 7.5x4 meters and 7.5x4.5 meters.

Zaelani, (45), a resident of RW 11 Pulogebang admitted that the condition of the damaged road was very disturbing the comfort of the residents.

"Hopefully, the repair can be finished quickly," she hoped.
