The Jakarta Post – Jakarta should be flood free in 2018, says minister – Public Works and Public
Housing Minister Basuki Hadimuljono has said that Jakarta will be flood free by 2018, particularly if
flood mitigation projects along the Ciliwung River finish on schedule.

The projects include the construction of the Ciliwung tunnel connecting West Flood Canal (BKB) and
East Flood Canal (BKT) that will split water flowing from the Ciliwung River as well as the expansion
of the capacity of the Ciliwung River, the longest river in the capital.

Once the process of the Ciliwung River normalization and the construction of the Ciliwung tunnel are
finished, the floods will recede,’ said Basuki as reported by tribunnews.com on Tuesday.
According to Basuki, the flood mitigation projects being implemented along the Ciliwung River and
Ciliwung Tunnel could reduce the volume of flow around Kampung Pulo to 440 cubic meters from
570 cubic meters per second during peak rainy season.

He stressed that with a flow volume of 470, the river would not overflow. The capacity of the flood
gates will be 504 cubic meters per second, so with 470 cubic meters per second, water flow will be
smooth,’ he added.

Basuki said that the Ciliwung flood mitigation project that started in 2013, is expected to be
completed within two years.
