NURSERY operators in Sungai Buloh are appealing to the Selangor government to house about 40 of them at an alternative site.

Selangor and Kuala Lumpur Landscaping and Nursery Operators Association president Lee Chee Hoong said the operators who initially numbered over 70, were facing eviction due to construction of the Damansara-Shah Alam Highway (Dash), road widening of Jalan Sungai Buloh in Shah Alam and underground pipe maintenance works.
