Cikole residents’ dream of a smooth road finally comes true

After waiting about 12 years, residents of Kampung Cilumber in Cibogo Village, Lembang, can finally see their damaged road being repaired.

“

After around 12 years in which the people of Cikole faced damaged roads without repairs, this year the West Bandung regency government has finally begun work on the Cilumber-Cikole road.

The West Bandung administration has started work on the 3,075-meter Cilumber-Cikole road, which runs through the Lembang tourist area. Regent Jeje Ritchie Ismail inspected the road with his wife, Syahnaz Sadiqah, who also chairs the West Bandung Family Welfare Empowerment organization.

The government will hotmix 1,385 meters during the current phase. The rest of the road will be repaired gradually, depending on the regional budget. Jeje said the administration remained committed to completing the entire route in stages, while prioritizing road sections that residents need most.

“

The repairs will be carried out in stages according to the capacity of the regional budget. For sections not yet handled, the government will continue repairs in later phases according to budget capacity and priorities.

Jeje said infrastructure improvements would cover northern, western and southern parts of West Bandung rather than concentrating development in urban areas. During the inspection, he and Syahnaz also spoke with residents and heard their requests about local conditions after the road improvement.

“

We are committed to carrying out development comprehensively, not only in the northern area but throughout West Bandung, so that all residents can feel its impact.
