Sidas-Darit Road is the main road from Landak Regency to Bengkayang Regency, West Kalimantan.
Road damage has drawn many complaints from residents, especially residents of Landak district. Road infrastructure for residents is a vital means for daily activities. Various road damages in the form of deep potholes and peeling asphalt cause the road to stall because vehicles have to slow down at speeds between 5 - 20 km / hour. Often causing long queues of vehicles because they have to slow down. These long queues are compounded by heavily loaded vehicles traveling at a slow pace and slowing other vehicles down. Many heavy vehicles pass by exceeding the predetermined tonnage. According to a source: named Ayi, a resident of Landak district who uses the road.
"Even more annoying is the frequent "scrambling" of lanes by heavy vehicles running". So that it hampers the opposite flow. As is often the case around Sidas Lane, Lintah which is heavily damaged. The same is experienced around the road from Darit to Simpang Tiga which causes queues at certain times.
One resident of Landak, Marsandy Ayisilla Sharon (21 years) said he was very disturbed by this condition. Ayi said that he used to travel from Ngabang to Darit by public transportation or using a private motorcycle for 3 hours or 4 hours. In addition to hampering activities by taking longer to travel, road damage also causes losses due to high vehicle repair costs: Damaged roads can damage vehicles, especially suspensions, wheels, and drive systems. High repair costs can be a financial burden for vehicle owners and the general public. It can also lead to decreased purchasing power and economic growth in the region and Poor Traffic Safety: Damaged or potholed roads can increase the risk of traffic accidents. Vehicles may be difficult to maintain control and may cause collisions or other accidents. This can impact the lives and health of local people.
