Fed up with heavy congestion in Bali, the island’s provincial government is looking at alternative ways to bust up the traffic. This could apparently mean an inter-city rail line.
But don’t start planning your train trip just yet—we seem to still be very early on in the idea stage at the moment.
The topic of a Denpasar-Singaraja rail line came up on Friday, when Bali Governor Made Mangku Pastika met with Ignasius Jonan, Indonesia’s Minister of Transportation.
In their brief conversation, Jonan expressed readiness to build the railway if Bali government has enough available space, according to Merdeka.
Pastika reportedly pledged to immediately undertake a study about the feasibility of a Denpasar-Singaraja line and says he hopes it can be realize to “improve the welfare of the community.”
