Sleman transport safety and infrastructure upgrades

Overview

In early July 2026, road lighting projects in Sleman and Kediri were put on hold while administrative reviews and a pedestrian‑area redesign were completed. The delay highlighted challenges in coordinating municipal upgrades.

By early August 2026, authorities moved forward with safety measures: Kereta Api Indonesia closed the last illegal at‑grade railway crossing in Sleman, eliminating unprotected level crossings, and new guard posts were installed at authorized sites. Simultaneously, a four‑hour road‑paving operation narrowed the Janti‑Prambanan route near the Bogem Bridge, prompting traffic advisories and encouraging drivers to use alternative routes. These actions illustrate a continued focus on improving transport safety and infrastructure in the region despite earlier setbacks.
