The Governor of Central Java, Ahmad Luthfi, is reallocating Rp 200 billion (approximately $12.8 million USD) from the 2026 provincial budget to prioritize road repairs. This decision comes after sustained criticism regarding the poor condition of roads throughout the region. The funds will be used for both asphalt and concrete road resurfacing projects across various districts. The reallocation aims to address public concerns and improve transportation infrastructure. Specific locations for the repairs have not yet been detailed, but officials indicate a focus on areas with the most significant damage. This move signals a response to public pressure and a commitment to improving road quality in Central Java. The budget adjustment reflects the administration’s acknowledgement of infrastructure needs.
