Another rainy evening, more flash floods across multiple major roads in Kuala Lumpur. Jabatan Penerangan WPKL has just issued a notice listing eight roads affected today, as follows:
- Jalan Cheras
- Lebuhraya Salak
- Jalan Sri Permaisuri 4
- Lebuhraya Bukit Jalil
- Lebuhraya KL – Seremban
- Lebuhraya Timur Barat (Bandar Tun Razak – Taman Connaught)
- Lebuhraya Damansara Puchong
- SPRINT
- Lebuhraya DUKE
As such, if the route you intend to take is affected, delay your journey if possible, and avoid forcing your way through floods as it may cause significant damage to your vehicle.
Also highly recommended is the Special Perils add-on for your vehicle’s insurance coverage, as past floods in recent times have shown, vehicle owners without flood coverage face potentially massive repair bills.

Different government but same problem.
Damage was done many decades ago with poor town planning, massive highway concessions and ineffective city council.
Over decades & years of many different construction projects in the name of development which happened at different times, resulting in an inadequate rain water drainage system.
Mother nature works on its own no matter how many human species desire power struggles or conflict chaos. Human species just a fraction of organism belongs to mother earth only idiots think they owned the earth!
