INFOKU, BLORA - The condition of the Ngawen – Japah - Todanan provincial road is damaged and bumpy so that it becomes a public spotlight.
Provincial roads are in bad condition and there are many puddles when it rains.
"Ngawen - Japah road is narrow, as well as the direction of Todanan which has not been concreted. The conditions are bumpy, there are lots of holes. Especially when it rains there are lots of puddles. Even though every morning many school children cross this road, and the community is engaged in economic activities. Please the Regent to build it, conveyed Governor. Reportedly this is a provincial road," said Sukardi, a resident of Japah.
Regent H. Arief Rohman immediately gave his response to the proposed aspirations of the Japah people. He confirmed that the Ngawen - Japah - Todanan road to the boundary of Pati Regency in Pucakwangi is a provincial road.

So that when there is damage, the development authority lies with the Central Java Provincial Government.
"Yes, I passed through Ngawen to Japah, the condition is that there are still many that are damaged on the way to Todanan. Because this is on the provincial road, we will propose it to the Governor so that it can be prioritized and built next year.
Including the Ngawen - Kunduran section of the provincial road which is also still damaged," said the Regent.
"Thank God, the Central Java DPU has built Todanan to the boundary of Pati Regency yesterday. This means that only Todanan towards Japah - Ngawen, and Ngawen - Kunduran is still damaged. Please pray that Governor Ganjar Pranowo will always be healthy so he can help us build existing provincial roads in Blora," continued the Regent.

Meanwhile, the traffic flow is quite dense, often passed by large tonnage vehicles from the Purwodadi and East Java areas.
"It's just been patched for a long time. One month, the patch is stupid again. Especially now it's the rainy season. If you're not careful, you're worried that it will fall. Well, hopefully it can be repaired soon, Mr. Governor. Especially now that the Regency Government is also working hard to build regency roads, so that it's a balance. Cook the Regency are currently actively building, the Provincial Government is not enthusiastic. The hope is that in 2023 all of them can be cast out," said Triyono, one of the road users.
