Govt to build 119 motorcycle shelters on highways to boost safety of bikers

Good example: This shelter along the Sprint Highway at Section 16 Petaling Jaya is a good example of the type of shelters needed as it is at a distance from the main road and has ample space for motorcyclists.

KUALA LUMPUR: Motorcyclists will soon be able to escape the worry of being involved in an accident or getting soaked when it rains with the government’s plan to build 119 motorcycle shelters on highways nationwide.

The plan, under the Bitara Madani initiative, which involves 33 highway concessionaires, is a collaboration between the Works Ministry and the Malaysian Highway Authority (LLM).
