KUALA LUMPUR: The SMART tunnel is reopen to traffic from 9pm yesterday after it was closed at 6.30pm Monday.
According to a Syarikat Mengurus Air Banjir dan Terowong Sdn Bhd (SMART) statement, the temporary closure earlier was activated after receiving instruction from the Irrigation and Drainage Department to channel excess water from Sungai Klang and Sungai Ampang following heavy rain.
“It saved Kuala Lumpur city centre from facing a major flood,” the statement said.
SMART management apologises for any inconvenience caused to motorists as a result of the tunnel closure. — Bernama
