KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 20 — Traffic flow on some of the country’s main highways as of 5pm today is reported to be slow due to a rise in vehicles heading to the nation’s capital, as people return to their respective destinations after voting in the 15th general election (GE15) yesterday.
A Malaysian Highway Authority (LLM) spokesperson said traffic was slow-moving for three kilometres leading to the Karak toll plaza, from the Karak intersection to Bentong toll plaza until Lentang, Bukit Tinggi to Genting Sempah and from the Gombak Rest and Service area (R&R) to Gombak toll plaza.
