Upkeep on NKVE, Elite highways underway
KUALA LUMPUR: Users of the New Klang Valley Expressway (NKVE) and the North-South Expressway Central Link (Elite) highways are advised to plan their journeys as maintenance works are being carried out, says PLUS Malaysia Berhad. It said that maintenance works involving drainage systems and right lane closures in both directions on the NKVE are now underway until Oct 14. This encompasses the Damansara-Bukit Lanjan route at Km19.3 to Km20.0 as well as road diversions at locations activated to ensure the comfort and safety of highway users. Meanwhile, on the Elite Highway, maintenance works are scheduled from July 21 to 25, between 11pm and 5am. These works will affect the Putrajaya-Bandar Saujana Putra route, specifically from Km19.5 to Km18.0, in relation to the launching of bridge beams and the activation of contra lanes, reported Bernama. In a separate statement, PLUS announced that the Smart Lane route from Kulai to Sedenak at Km26.7 to Km33.7 (Northbound) will be closed starting tomorrow as part of ongoing efforts to improve the highway infrastructure. PLUS announced the closure to make way for the implementation of lane addition works in the area. 'During the period, the two existing lanes at the affected locations will be open as usual to maintain traffic flow and minimise disruptions to highway users,' it said. Meanwhile, the Smart Lane route from Senai to Kulai at Km19.0 to Km26.7 (Northbound) will operate as usual. 'Users can get the latest traffic information via the PLUS Application, PUTRI Virtual Assistant, X@plustrafik application, or electronic signage (VMS) at selected locations,' PLUS said.

Aidiladha: Over two million vehicles expected on PLUS highways
KUALA LUMPUR: PLUS Malaysia Berhad (PLUS) expects over two million vehicles daily on its highways during the peak days, between June 5 and 6, as well as June 8 and 9, in conjunction with the Aidiladha holiday on June 7. In a statement today, PLUS announced that to distribute traffic and prevent vehicles from concentrating in specific locations on the highways simultaneously, the company has provided the MyPLUS-TTA digital travel schedule through the PLUS app to help users plan their journeys well in advance 'Due to this, PLUS urges the public to plan and schedule their travel itineraries earlier based on the MyPLUS-TTA recommendations, especially for trips back to their hometowns from the Klang Valley between June 5 and 7, as well as trips back to the Klang Valley between June 8 and 10 after the Aidiladha holiday,' according to the statement. PLUS said highway users can obtain the MyPLUS-TTA digital travel schedule by downloading and accessing the PLUS app to choose the most optimal travel times for journeys on the PLUS highways and the East Coast Expressway 2 (LPT2) between June 5 and 10. According to PLUS, the MyPLUS-TTA initiative is part of PLUS's efforts to enhance the comfort of highway users during festive seasons based on data and travel patterns from previous festive seasons. For a smooth traffic flow in conjunction with the holiday, PLUS will activate the Smart Lane at 30 focal points identifiable by Green Flashing Lights and special signboards. This lane is only for light, private and passenger vehicles, with a recommended speed limit of around 60 kilometres per hour (km/h). PLUS also reminds users to follow instructions of on-site personnel at these locations as well as not to use the emergency lanes at other locations where there are no Smart Lane routes in order to avoid legal action. From June 5 to 9, there will be no lane closures for maintenance works, except in cases of emergencies, accidents and critical repairs. Meanwhile, PLUS is also taking several other steps to further facilitate the movement of the public during the festive season, including additional preparations at toll plazas and Rest and Service areas (R&R). Among the initiatives implemented include providing 26 additional toilet cabin units at rest stops and selected toll plazas to enhance the comfort of highway users, complementing the existing toilet facilities at those locations. PLUS also requests the public's cooperation to plan their journeys well and to use the public facilities provided, such as restrooms and prayer rooms at toll plazas and nearby R&R areas. The public can obtain traffic information and plan their journeys through the PLUS app, PUTRI, Virtual Assistant - PUTRI, X@plustrafik, electronic signboards (VMS) at selected locations, while for emergency assistance, contact PLUSLine 1800-88-0000 or LPT2Line 1800-88-0220.
