Transportation planning expert Goh Bok Yen said that while the contraflow could alleviate congestion in a particular area for a given time, more should be done at a macro level.
“The Transport Ministry should focus on a comprehensive macro plan that covers a larger area, taking into account land use, development patterns and people’s lifestyle.
He said the contraflow lanes would be carried out from the Sungai Besi toll plaza to the Besraya Interchange ; Jalan Maharajalela to Taman Connaught ; and from Ampang Point to Jalan Tun Razak , adding that the Malaysian Institute of Road Safety Research would draw up the guidelines. On Kuala Lumpur City Hall’s plan for a dedicated bus lane along Jalan Ampang starting July 3, Goh said it would be effective only if more buses served the route.
Of the three, the Jalan Maharajalela-Taman Connaught stretch has an existing contraflow, but this will be extended to 4km beginning from Jalan Maharajalela until the Bulatan Cheras interchange.
