Jakarta (B2B) - Hujan deras yang berlangsung Sabtu (22/12) mengakibatkan kemacetan luar biasa. Terdapat 22 genangan banjir tersebar di Jakarta, bahkan jalan protokol Sudirman-Thamrin pun tergenang banjir.
Saat bersamaan, hujan deras di kawasan Puncak membuat debit Sungai Ciliwung meningkat 110 cm. Akibatnya, ketinggian air di Pintu Air Katulampa mencapai 110 cm, Sabtu pukul 16:18 Wib sehingga ditetapkan kewaspadaan Siaga III dan pukul 18:00 Wib ketinggian air mencapai 120 cm.
Kepala Pusat Data, Informasi dan Humas Badan Nasional Penanggulangan Bencana (BNPB) Sutopo Purwo Nugroho mengatakan kondisi tersebut menimbulkan 78 titik banjir di DKI Jakarta, sementara Kanal Banjir Timur hanya mampu mengurangi 15 titik banjir
Apabila dilakukan langkah normalisasi sungai, katanya lagi, Kanal Banjir Barat akan mengurangi enam titik banjir. Normalisasi Sungai Pesanggrahan, Angke dan Sunter pada 2011-2014 dengan dana Rp 2,3 triliun hanya mengurangi 10 titik banjir.
"Demikian pula proyek pengerukan sungai Jakarta Emergency Dredging Initiative di Cengkareng Drain, Kali Sunter, Kanal Banjir Barat, Cideng, Angke dan lainnya pada 2013-2014 akan mengurangi 20 titik banjir," kata Sutopo.
Namun hal itu, ungkap Sutopo, tetap menyisakan 27 titik banjir yang belum teratasi. "Itu pun apabila tidak penambahan titik banjir baru."
"Kenyataannya, banjir kemarin jalan Thamrin, Sudirman, dan Gatot Subroto bukan termasuk dalam 78 titik banjir yang ada," kata dia.
