ONLY 20 minutes – that’s the total travel time for motorists heading from Beruas to Changkat Jering, both in Perak, when using the West Coast Expressway (WCE) during off-peak hours.

This will certainly be music to the ears of those plying the coastal route, especially since this 35.5km stretch will be toll-free until May 11.
