Turn ‘rat trails’ into alternative route, suggest villagers


TELUK INTAN: Villagers of Kampung Baru Palawan near Langkap here have suggested that the “jalan tikus” (dirt road) in Ladang Bikam be turned into an alternative road for users of the North-South Expressway when the highway is congested, especially during festive seasons.

Lee Kim Chin, 65, one of the men who assisted road users to beat the traffic jam by using the Ladang Bikam dirt road on the fourth day of Hari Raya Aidilfitri, said it could also shorten the journey to Kuala Lumpur.
