KUALA LUMPUR: Traffic flow on several major expressways in the peninsula is reported to be slow as at midday, due to the school holidays.
According to a PLUS Malaysia Berhad spokesperson, traffic was slow moving from Sungai Buaya heading to Bukit Beruntung and Slim River to Sungkai.
“Traffic is also congested from Tapah to Gopeng due to an accident involving a trailer at Km304.1 which has caused the left lane to be blocked but the situation is manageable,” she said when contacted by Bernama.
