KUALA TERENGGANU – Six roads in Setiu district that connect Terengganu and Kelantan have to be completely closed to all vehicle types due to the worsening floods.
Terengganu police in a statement today said the affected roads are Jalan Kuala Terengganu-Kota Baru (near Petronas Permaisuri in Kg Balik Bukit); Jalan Kuala Terengganu-Kota Baru (at the Guntong traffic light); and Jalan Guntong-Kg Saujana (in Kg Guntong Dalam).
“The roads that are also cut off to heavy and light vehicles are Jalan Kuala Terengganu-Kota Baru (in Kg Buluh); Jalan Permaisuri-Kg Hulu Seladang (in Kg Besut); and Jalan Kuala Terengganu-Kg Raja (near the Che Selamah Roundabout on Jalan Pantai),” according to the statement.
Meanwhile, LPT2 Sdn Bhd in a statement on its official Facebook today informed that – due to a blocked section at KM393.4 on the Bukit Besi to Ajil route after a slope collapsed – drivers from Kuala Lumpur heading to Kuala Terengganu are advised to exit at the Dungun Toll Plaza (Mandatory Exit) and use the coastal road (FT03).
“However, travellers from Kuala Terengganu towards Kuantan and Kuala Lumpur can use the LPT2, as it is still open to all vehicles,” according to the statement. – Bernama, December 19, 2022
