Pemprov Papua Siapkan Akses Darat Trimuris–Kasonaweja di Mamberamo Raya

MAMBERAMO RAYA - Pemerintah Provinsi Papua merencanakan pembangunan jalur darat alternatif dari Trimuris menuju Kasonaweja di Kabupaten Mamberamo Raya untuk mendukung konektivitas masyarakat dan mengurangi ketergantungan pada transportasi sungai.

Rencana tersebut disampaikan Gubernur Papua Matius D. Fakhiri saat meninjau Puskesmas Bagusa Trimuris di Distrik Mamberamo Hilir, Sabtu (16/5/2026).

Menurutnya, kondisi arus sungai di wilayah Mamberamo memiliki risiko cukup tinggi bagi aktivitas transportasi masyarakat.

“Kami sudah membahas rencana pembangunan jalan alternatif supaya masyarakat tidak terus bergantung pada transportasi sungai,” ujarnya.

Selain jalur darat, pemerintah juga menyiapkan pengembangan pelabuhan singgah untuk mendukung mobilitas masyarakat di wilayah pesisir.

Dalam kunjungan tersebut, Gubernur turut melihat kondisi fasilitas kesehatan dan pendidikan di Distrik Mamberamo Hilir.

Ia menilai masih terdapat sejumlah fasilitas yang membutuhkan dukungan pemerintah provinsi, termasuk sarana pendidikan dan rumah guru.

“Pelayanan dasar seperti kesehatan dan pendidikan harus terus dibantu agar masyarakat bisa terlayani dengan baik,” katanya.

Pemprov Papua menyatakan pembangunan infrastruktur dasar di wilayah terpencil akan dilakukan secara bertahap sesuai kebutuhan daerah. ***

MAMBERAMO RAYA — The Papua Provincial Government is planning the construction of an alternative land route from Trimuris to Kasonaweja in Mamberamo Raya Regency to support community connectivity and reduce dependence on river transportation.

The plan was conveyed by Papua Governor Matius D. Fakhiri during his visit to Bagusa Trimuris Community Health Center in Mamberamo Hilir District on Saturday, May 16, 2026.

According to him, river currents in the Mamberamo area pose considerable risks to community transportation activities.

"We have discussed plans to build an alternative road so that people do not continue to depend on river transportation," he said.

In addition to the land route, the government is also preparing the development of stopover ports to support community mobility in coastal areas.

During the visit, the Governor also inspected the condition of health and education facilities in Mamberamo Hilir District.

He noted that several facilities still require support from the provincial government, including educational facilities and teachers' housing.

"Basic services such as health and education must continue to be supported so that the community can be well served," he said.

The Papua Provincial Government stated that the development of basic infrastructure in remote areas will be carried out gradually according to regional needs. ***
