INFOKU, BLORA – It is estimated that the implementation of the Randublatung-Ngawi access road project has not received a budget allocation for repairs through the Presidential Instruction (Inpres) scheme.
It is estimated that it will enter the second stage. Of the five roads in the Presidential Instruction area, only two packages have entered the first stage.
Head of Highways Division (Kabid) of the Blora Public Works and Spatial Planning (PUPR) Office, Yudi Kristiawan, said the road connecting Randublatung to the border with Ngawi Regency has been included in the short list of five packages . Namely Presidential Decree No. 79 of 2019.

"It means that it is included in the national strategic project (PSN). However, because this is already the fifth month, it is possible that the road section will be included in the batch 2 Road Instruction Instruction," he said in a statement to the press.
According to Yudi, a total of 18.7 kilometers of roads have become the agenda for accelerating regional economic development.
However, it is possible that the road sections have not yet been included in the road instructions because the package value is quite large.
PUPR Service, according to him, has carried out road improvements in a small part of these sections.
The details are 1.2 kilometers long and 7 meters wide from the 2022 DAK budget. As well as 4.5 kilometers long concrete rigids and 4.5 meters wide in the previous year.

"So that still leaves around 13 kilometers of roads," he explained.
It is known, the Regency Government has proposed 18 roads to be assisted by the central government, with a total budget of around IDR 300 billion.
The proposals were narrowed down into a short list of five packages with a total budget of around Rp 150 billion. But in the drawing desk for batch 1 there are only two packages. Namely the Wulung-Klatak and Sumber-Temulus roads.
Blora Regent Arief Rohman predicts that he will receive road construction assistance with a road instruction scheme of between IDR 50 billion and IDR 150 billion.
To oversee the proposal, his party is lobbying various parties in the central government to get a road construction quota from the state budget.
"Hopefully by the end of this month it will be fixed . We don't know how much we will get for sure. Because it is divided for all of Indonesia, “he explained. (Endah / IST )
