Goods vehicles banned from city centre during peak hours


KUALA LUMPUR: The Road Transport Department (JPJ) has prohibited all operators or drivers of goods vehicles involving heavy vehicles with laden weight exceeding 7,500kg, from entering the main roads into the city centre from 6.30am until 9.30am, and from 4.30pm until 7.30pm, every day.

The prohibition follows JPJ’s observation showing that entry of heavy vehicles into the city during these peak hours contributed to traffic congestion which had affected the smooth traffic flow in the Klang Valley.
