The first Baskule Bridge in Jakarta, which connects the village in Gandaria
Jakarta – Jakarta now has a moving bridge open and closed access or the first baskule. This bridge connects towns in Gandaria. As is well known, the Bascule bridge was indeed proposed by the DKI Jakarta deputy governor (Deputy Governor) Rano Karno. He wants this bridge to facilitate the process of normalizing rivers in the capital. Because Rano said that one of the obstacles for river amount in Jakarta was the trouble of heavy equipment such as Beko to the place because of a permanent bridge. “I ask yes (made an open bridge). Because the technical problems are there,” Rano said in Jakarta City Hall on Monday (11/8/2025). Browse to continue the content, he said the permanent bridge made the process of moving the tool slowly and complicated. With the open and now bridge, the river normalization process is expected to be easier. “Almost average our bridge cannot be passed. Do you want to enter a difficult river, go out again, move to other regions. It is very difficult,” he continued. Examples of other countries that he gave an example in the Netherlands are the bridge built with an open system so that heavy equipment or ships can move easily. Rano plans to discuss this idea during his visit to Rotterdam in October as part of the cooperation between Sister City. “It can be considered jokes, but I’m serious. In the Netherlands, the Bridge is open. If you want to bend here and then move, the bridge is open, the tool can pass,” he explained. Rano emphasized that the river’s bagger and normalization program became a priority for the DKI Jakarta provincial government. He acknowledged that from the beginning, the Deputy Governor received a direct task from the governor to oversee this activity. “Decoration is compulsory. There is no such thing as visualizing activities for photos. No, it’s work,” he said. “So it is one of the techniques I indeed offer to the head of SDA. It means that it is the governor and representative program, that baggerwork is mandatory,” he said. Now the proposal is realized. The bridge is called the bridge between towns (Jak) to adopt Gandaria or Jak adopted Mulia, located in South Jakarta (South Jakarta). Jak is the first Baskule Bridge built in Jakarta. “This is the first Jak that can be opened and closed that is built in Jakarta,” said Friday (8/15/2025), head of DKI Jakarta Bina Marga office, Heru Suwondo.

Even some parts of the bridge swing when crossed by vehicles. Done in 3 bullanjbbbadan is also done for 3 months.
