“The Indonesian government aims to complete the construction of 5,000 suspension bridges across various regions by the end of 2026 to strengthen connectivity in remote areas.”
“[Cabinet Secretary] Wijaya stated that the government has targeted the completion of 2,500 suspension bridges by August 2026. Construction will then be accelerated to reach the overall target of 5,000 bridges by the end of the year.”
“He explained that the development of suspension bridges is carried out through collaboration between the government, the Indonesian Army (TNI AD), and local communities.”
“The government has also targeted the completion of around 6,900 bridges by [year-end] 2026, with a focus on areas facing limited river crossings, to improve mobility and economic opportunities.”
“This aligns with ongoing initiatives under President Prabowo Subianto, including the launch of 1,151 kilometers of regional roads across 37 provinces to reduce logistics costs and strengthen national connectivity.”
