Suggestion for more toll lanes at Gombak and Bentong


I HAVE noticed the work being carried out along the 45.3km stretch of the Kuala Lumpur-Karak Highway between Gombak and Bentong. It would be widened from three to four lanes between Gombak and Genting Sempah, and from two to three lanes between Genting Sempah and Bentong.

I find this heartening as I use this highway regularly. Over the years, the traffic has increased significantly, leading to congestion particularly during holidays and festive seasons.
