KUALA LUMPUR – Traffic on major highways nationwide continues to be slow-moving, with no extraordinary congestion reported as of 10pm today.

The Malaysian Highway Authority (MHA) said that for those eastbound, traffic was slow from the Gombak toll plaza to Bentong and before entering the Karak toll plaza. 

Traffic flow at the exit from the Kuala Terengganu Toll Plaza on the Pantai Timur Highway 2, which was congested earlier in the evening, has returned to normal.

As for those northbound, traffic was moving slowly and showed improvement in several areas, such as from Slim River to Sungkai, Tapah to Gopeng, and from the Menora Tunnel to Kuala Kangsar. 

PLUS tweeted that an accident had occurred at KM445 from Rawang Selatan to Rawang and KM296.7 from Tapah to Gopeng, but none of the lanes are obstructed and traffic flow is under control.

For those southbound, traffic on the North-South Expressway (PLUS) around Senawang and Pedas Linggi is also reported to be slow-moving, probably due to an accident.

“MHA has yet to get any information from the concessionaire regarding the accident, but the congestion is reported to be for a short time only,” a PLUS spokesman said when contacted.

The public can stay updated on the latest traffic situation through the Plusline toll-free line at 1800-88-0000, the Twitter page at www.twitter.com/plustrafik, or the LLM line at 1800-88-7752 and the Twitter page at www.twitter.com/llminfotrafik. – Bernama, April 20, 2023
