THE ongoing construction of the Air Itam-Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway has closed up regular access points from Lebuhraya Thean Teik to Lintang Angsana with businesses like eateries reporting a plunge in business since the barriers were placed in July.
Sam Saik, 35, who runs a local Cantonese delights shop said his business has dwindled in the past month with many regulars not returning to their usual haunt.
