Major highways congested

Traffic flow on several major expressways nationwide is slow-moving as of 1.30pm today.

Northbound traffic from Rawang to Sungai Buaya; Slim River to Sungkai; and Tapah to Gopeng is particularly heavy, a Plus Malaysia Berhad spokesman said.

“Traffic heading south is also slow moving, especially from the Seremban Rest and Service (R&R) area to Seremban; Ayer Hitam to Yong Peng; Kulai to Sedenak; and Skudai to Senai,” he said.

Meanwhile, a Malaysian Highway Authority (LLM) spokesman said congestion is being experienced at the Kuala Lumpur-Karak Highway; the Gombak Toll Plaza to Genting Sempah; and Lentang to Bentong.

“(However), traffic on the East Coast Expressway 1 and 2 is smooth in both directions,” he added.

The public can obtain the latest traffic information via Plusline’s toll free line: 1800-88-0000; the LLM line at 1800-88-7752; or their Twitter sites: www.twitter.com/plustrafik and www.twitter.com/llminfotrafik.
