Jember Regency Government Speeds Up 2026 Infrastructure Projects to Avoid Year-End Backlog

The Jember Regency Government has begun accelerating the implementation of infrastructure projects for the 2026 fiscal year. This move was made because the effective time in the first semester is considered increasingly limited. The Head of Construction and Spatial Planning at the Jember PUPR Office, A.R. Nuya, stated that until the end of April 2026, the majority of development programs are still in the planning stage. Nuya explained the strategy of dividing project targets into two types: Non-Tender packages are targeted to be completed before the end of the first semester, while Tender projects are to be kept running consistently according to schedule. He emphasized that road infrastructure work heavily depends on weather conditions and technical stages, so starting earlier is key. On the other hand, Member of Commission C of the Jember DPRD, Agung Budiman, warned that the local government should not repeat old patterns by piling up project work at the end of the fiscal year. Agung stressed the importance of development quality and consistent standards from the trial stage through to final completion, and called for continuous supervision to ensure long-term benefits for the community. https://kabarbaik.co/pemkab-jember-dorong-percepatan-proyek-infrastruktur-2026-antisipasi-penumpukan-di-akhir-tahun/
