An update on the temporary closure at certain sections of the New Klang Valley Expressway (NKVE) on March 13. Highway concessionaire PLUS has come out with a map listing various alternative routes that can be taken by motorists during the period.
The closure, which is to make way for a charity run, involves the stretch from Bukit Lanjan to Shah Alam, including the Subang, Damansara and Kota Damansara interchanges, and will take place from 12.30 am to 10 am on Sunday.
As reported last week, users from the north wishing to go to Elite Highway, Seremban and other destinations south need to exit the North-South Expressway (NSE) at the Rawang South interchange and use the Guthrie Highway before joining the Elite Highway via the Shah Alam toll plaza.
The charity run is being held to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the UEM Group. A total of 6,000 runners will be participating in the run. Those taking part are advised to park their vehicles at Paradigm Mall, Kelana Jaya Stadium and Kelana Business Centre.

Running on major highway??? Stupidest ever event.
Why don’t you have the run in Putrajaya which is always empty on weekends and at night?
Why disrupt the NKVE traffic?
Why special treatment for Government officials and Ministers?
The idiot who suggested closing the highway for a run should be shot. The idiot who approved it also should be shot. This is a main artery highway. Not a small housing area road. Uncalled for and totally unnecessary. Just like the KL V8 race, those in power are flexing their muscle and showing off at the inconvenience of others.
what next? closing off Federal Highway for the bi weekly Mat Rempit Malam Minggu Race Series?
hope a bmw driver or lorry driver “accidentally” mows down some of these government linked a-holes.
I am running there tomorrow and I am not a govt a hole. I hope someone mow you down one day too
Will the roads open again by 10am for sure or will it be later? Pls revert as we are planning to use the highway in the morning.
