Trial Road Closure at Jalan Kerinchi to Ease Evening Congestion
-full_normal.jpg)
Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) has begun a trial closure of the right turn from Jalan Kerinchi into Jalan Kerinchi Kiri 3 at the intersection near SMK Seri Pantai and RHB Bank.
The trial, which commenced on Sept 1, is in effect on weekdays between 5PM and 7PM. DBKL said the move is aimed at easing evening rush hour traffic congestion in the Kerinchi area, particularly near schools and commercial hubs.
During the trial period, motorists who wish to access Jalan Kerinchi Kiri 3 must follow a diversion route. Vehicles are required to make a U-turn ahead by first turning right into Jalan Kerinchi Kiri 1, then right into Jalan Kerinchi Kiri, before turning left into Jalan Kerinchi and finally entering Jalan Kerinchi Kiri 3.
DBKL has provided a map showing the alternative route, with red arrows marking the diversion path for clarity.
The public is invited to provide feedback, questions or objections regarding the trial closure by contacting DBKL via email at jpb@dbkl.gov.my
