If you’ve been driving around Klang, Selangor on the mornings of Thursday (October 7th) and today (8 Oct), you would’ve most likely noticed some unusually heavy traffic, namely on the Grand Sepadu highway, Pulau Indah highway and Jalan Telok Gong.
On both days, Astro Radio Traffic reported some heavy traffic around those areas which were due to high tides affecting the roads.

While the traffic seemed to improve gradually as the rush hour passed, this wasn’t the case for the Pulau Indah highway today.
At 11:30am, there was still a 6KM-jam from Bandar Botanik heading towards the Muhibbah bridge, about a half an hour delay for drivers at the location. This was also affecting traffic from Jalan Kem.
Traffic was also slow on Jalan Telok Gong from Taman Kota Pendamar towards Glenmarie Cove.
Do take note of these recent road conditions and plan your journey ahead if you intend on driving through any of the routes mentioned.
Drive safe, everyone!
