THE Malaysian Highway Authority (MHA) has been urged to stop narrowing the two-lane exit from Subang Jaya to the Federal Highway.

Subang Jaya assemblyman Hannah Yeoh said the ongoing road work near Glenmarie in Shah Alam had reduced the exit to only one lane.

“It has created traffic congestion in the morning as the exit is one of the main access roads for Subang Jaya residents to get out of the township.

“I have received many complaints from the residents last Thursday and Friday regarding the road work,” she said.

Yeoh added that she had highlighted the matter to Seri Setia assemblyman Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad, who was coordinating with the Shah Alam City Council (MBSA) to supervise the work.

“According to mayor Datuk Mohd Jaafar Mohd Atan, the road work falls under MHA, since it is on the Federal Highway.

“MHA should not narrow the road since it affects thousands of Subang Jaya residents in the morning,” she said.

Yeoh added MBSA should brief the Subang Jaya Municipal Council, on the traffic plan for the new development.

“It seems that there would be criss-crossing of traffic especially motorists heading towards the development and those from Subang Jaya,” she said.
