Kuala
Lumpur, Tuesday:- Those planning to use the highway for the
‘balik kampung’ rush this Hari Raya holidays are advised to
follow the PLUS Travel Time Advisory (TTA).
According to PLUS Expressways Berhad (PLUS) Chief Operating
Officer, Nik Airina Nik Jaffar, “To ensure smoother and safer
highway travel this Hari Raya holidays, PLUS has prepared the
TTA for those in the Klang Valley heading up north and down
south on Saturday (27 September), Sunday (28 September) and
Tuesday (30 September) as well as for their return journey to
the Klang Valley on Saturday (4 October) and Sunday (5
October).”
(Please refer to the attached schedule for details)
PLUS is the first highway operator to introduce the highway
travel schedule to assist the public in planning their journey
and smoothen traffic flow on the highway.
The TTA concept, which was first introduced during last year’s
Merdeka holidays with the co-operation of the Malaysian Highway
Authority (MHA) and the Police, is based on staggered travel to
various destinations to reduce traffic congestion during peak
periods.
“During last year’s Hari Raya holidays, travel on the highway
was smoother as 60 to 70 percent of highway users followed the
TTA. Therefore, we hope that the public will continue to give
their co-operation in following the TTA during their ‘balik
kampung’ rush and their return journey to the Klang Valley this
Hari Raya Holidays,” Nik Airina said.
