KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): The government may consider banning heavy vehicles on the roads during festive seasons that coincide with school holidays to reduce traffic congestion, says Deputy Transport Minister Datuk Kamarudin Jaffar (pic).

Kamarudin, who is also Bandar Tun Razak MP, said the ban on heavy vehicles was only enforced during Hari Raya Aidilfitri and Chinese New Year each year.
