KUALA LUMPUR – Traffic flow on several major highways is reported to be smooth as of 9am today.

A Malaysian Highway Authority spokesperson said that traffic flow at the Jalan Duta toll plaza (northbound) and Sg Besi toll plaza (southbound) is under control – while at the Gombak toll plaza (eastbound), there was a slight increase in the number of vehicles. 

“So far, traffic flow on all highways is smooth except on the Johor Causeway from Singapore, which is reportedly slow due to the rising traffic volume. 

“There is also an accident at KM311.5 of the North-South Expressway from Tapah to Gopeng, Perak. The left lane is closed, and traffic is moving smoothly,” he told Bernama today. 

He said traffic is also smooth on the KL-Karak Highway and the East Coast Expressway (LPT) 1 and LPT 2. 

PLUS’ official X account said that the Smartlane has been activated in several areas, including KM4.2 to KM1.8 (southbound) from Dato Onn to Pasir Gudang and KM367.3 to KM354 (northbound) between Slim River and Sungkai. The public can obtain the latest traffic updates through the toll-free Plusline at 1-800-88-0000 or via www.twitter.com/plustrafik, or through the LLM hotline at 1-800-88-7752 and social media page at www.twitter.com/llmtrafik. – February 11, 2024
