A motorcyclist rides pass the tanker on the highway

IPOH: An overturned oil tanker at KM257 near the Menora Tunnel of the North South Expressway is causing miles-long traffic jam Saturday with the tailback stretching to Simpang Pulai, some 50km away.

Both the northbound lanes have been closed to allow spilled oil from the tanker to be removed. Highway concessionaire Plus has opened a contra lane on the opposite side for vehicles to flow.
