KUALA LUMPUR – The Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) is conducting Op Lancar from today until Monday (May 1) to ensure the smooth flow of traffic on major expressways in the country.

Bukit Aman Traffic Investigation and Enforcement Department director Datuk Mat Kasim Karim said police expect an increase in the volume of vehicles with the return of holidaymakers to their respective destinations following the soon-to-end school holidays and the Labour Day holiday.

“Therefore, to facilitate the movement of road users, Op Lancar is implemented from today until May 1, especially in hotspot areas where there is traffic congestion.

“PDRM is also stationing its personnel at identified locations to ensure smooth and controlled traffic flow,” he said in a statement today.

Kasim said PDRM will also take action to disperse congestion by activating the SmartLane route at several locations on the North-South Expressway through collaboration with PLUS Bhd.

“The locations are at the Port Dickson intersection to the Seremban intersection, North Senai intersection to the Kulai intersection, Gua Tempurung to Gopeng, Slim River to Sungkai, and Rawang to Sg Buaya,” he said. – Bernama, April 28, 2023
