PETALING JAYA: A plan has begun to map out the risks of slope failures on state roads in Selangor to avoid a repeat of the Batang Kali landslide.
The Selangor Public Works Department (JKR) director Lokman Nasir said that Selangor JKR, with the collaboration of the department’s slope engineering branch, would apply for a budget from the Federal Government to implement landslide hazard and risk mapping for all state roads in Selangor next year.
