Bulak Kapal Flyover in Bekasi: Rp188 Billion, Contract on 14 November

Bulak Kapal高架桥：勿加泗约1880亿盾项目11月14日签约、15日开工

Construction of the Bulak Kapal flyover in East Bekasi is entering its final preparation stage. The Bekasi City Government plans to sign the contract on 14 November 2026 and start physical work on 15 November 2026, with a budget of almost Rp188 billion. The bottom line: the overpass will soon absorb structural materials such as concrete and reinforcing steel, provided the remaining land acquisition is finished on time.

Key Facts

Schedule and value of the Bulak Kapal flyover

Bekasi Mayor Tri Adhianto Tjahyono set out the schedule while accompanying Coordinating Minister for Infrastructure and Regional Development Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (AHY) on a site visit on Friday, 30 October 2026. According to the city government's official website, the works contract is scheduled for 14 November 2026, so site work is expected to start on 15 November 2026.

The construction budget is put at almost Rp188 billion. FokusJabodetabek notes that construction is funded by the central government, while land acquisition is the city's job. Based on a city explanation in May 2026, the flyover will run from Jalan Joyo Martono to the Bulak Kapal prison area.

Land acquisition: 40 of 76 plots

Of the 76 plots needed, 40 have been settled and about 36 remain. Some of the remaining land belongs to Perum Jasa Tirta (PJT), the Ministry of Social Affairs, and social and public facilities. Where a plot cannot be settled by direct payment, the government will use consignment, depositing the compensation with the court. Owners who have been paid get about one week to demolish their buildings themselves.

During construction, traffic will be diverted to Jalan Ampera and Jalan Muhammad Yamin. The city is also talking with state railway firm PT KAI about using land beside the tracks as a parallel road. Once the flyover is finished, two level crossings, including the one on Jalan Ampera, are planned to close completely.

Material needs for an urban overpass in Bekasi

The documents we checked do not give span length, pier count or structural specifications, so we do not estimate material volumes. In general, an urban flyover uses ready-mix concrete for foundations and piers, reinforcing steel, precast concrete or steel girders, asphalt for the wearing course, plus drainage and safety-barrier materials. Because the site is dense and next to a railway, deliveries usually have to follow strict working hours and traffic management.

For suppliers in and around Bekasi, the 15 November date shows when demand for structural materials should begin to rise. FokusJabodetabek reports the project was accelerated after a train accident at Bekasi Timur station on 27 April 2026. homeX, a building-materials platform with a showroom, warehousing and delivery in Indonesia, tracks Greater Jakarta infrastructure projects like this one, because construction activity nearby also drives shophouse and home renovation along the same corridor.
