Menurut pemahaman saya, infrastruktur yg dimaksud pada dokumen asal adalah infrastruktur jalan.

urat nadi = arterial roads
Ref.:
An *arterial road* is a moderate or high-capacity road which is immediately below a highway level of service. Much like a biological artery, an arterial road carries large volumes of traffic between areas in urban centres.
