Transforming Indonesia's National Roads

The theme of the October 2014 Prakarsa is 'Transforming Indonesia's Roads'. The six Road Advisory Notes (RAN) that comprise this edition take a comprehensive look at the strategies needed to ensure that Indonesia's road networks support the country's economic and social development. The RAN look at why Indonesia's road network is so important and address specific topics such as expressways, arterials, funding, use of incentives, and road safety. The dedication of the October issue to the RAN represents a slight departure from Prakarsa's usual formula, reflecting the urgency of the messages the RAN contain and their relevance to all audiences who are striving toward a connected future for Indonesia. The October edition also includes several of our usual columns such as Expert View, Infrastructure by the Numbers, and Outcomes
