KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): The Malaysian Highway Authority (LLM) has reported a high number of vehicles on the main route to the East Coast despite the enforcement of movement controls in the city.

An LLM spokesman said, when contacted by Bernama Saturday (May 8), that the number of vehicles had been increasing since as early as 8am causing congestion especially in the area before the Bentong Toll Plaza, adding that it might be due to the rising number of road users as well as the strict inspection conducted by the police at a roadblock mounted at the toll plaza.
