A railway project to Jakarta’s Soekarno-Hatta airport is scheduled to finish by the end of 2009, an official was quoted by Jakarta Post.
“The design is almost done. We’re now waiting for the detailed planning,” the president director of PT Railing, Masdhratul Hidayat, was quoted saying.
PT Railing, a subsidiary of the railway company PT Kereta Api, and the airport operator PT Angkasa Pura, are managing the project.
The report said the railway track would pass several train stations and would provide an alternative means to get to the airport.
“Each year, 30 million people flock to the airport. So the need for alternative transportation is also increasing,” Masdhratul was quoted saying.
