Pogung Kidul: Jalan Arah Wates/Purworejo - Jalan Underpass Jombor - Jombor Underpass
Jombor Underpass sits on the southern foothills of Mount Merapi in the Special Region of Yogyakarta, Indonesia, where the city’s northern ring-road traffic meets routes signed for Wates and Purworejo. Together with Flyover Jombor, it forms a grade-separated junction in Sleman, on Yogyakarta’s northern urban fringe, separating through traffic from turning movements at Jombor. Jalan Arah Wates/Purworejo leads toward western Central Java, while the wider interchange belongs to the busy road network around Yogyakarta. The regional capital is the seat of the Yogyakarta Sultanate, in Indonesia’s only province whose governor is traditionally the reigning sultan. Merapi’s volcanic slopes and the densely settled plain give this transport corridor its wider geographic setting.
