The Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) has announced that contra-flow traffic has been activated on the KL-Seremban Highway from today, April 24, from the Sungai Besi toll plaza to KM5.2 of the highway. This activation of contra-flow traffic will be from 6am to 9am.
Based on the graphic accompanying the city council’s announcement, the contra-flow activation is likely in order to facilitate maintenance works in the area.
Users who will be travelling along this stretch of the highway are advised to follow posted signage for the contra-flow traffic, and heed the instructions of personnel on-site.

did they get a kindergarten kid to make that diagram?
Bloody hell never announce beforehand suddenly today do today say. Now thanks to them both sides are jam like hell and it didn’t help to reduce the jam going towards KL anyway. What an utter failure from this utter failure gahmen..
Agreed, it only now has created a heavy jam towards south bound. And the other side is no better.
Jam giler today, both way pun jam. No need contra flow la.
Bad traffic jam due to this contra flow. And both ways also jam. Should stop this.
“the contra-flow activation is likely in order to facilitate maintenance works in the area.”
No I took it to work early morning and back home in evening. By then the contra flow is back to normal flow. This morning the contra flow is back, so it has nothing to do with any maintenance. This arrangement looks to be permanent and will be the cause for morning jams both ways now. Sad they have to do this. 1st time Im late even with a 20minutes buffer.
Yes, it has added 30mins in my drive to Nilai. I am not pleased. Solve the solve problem in hand not create another, this contra flow has created another problem for south bound traffic.

Should utilise emergency lane for additional lane for north bound. Previously jam from south to north but contra lane worsened the nse by jamming both directions. Dbkl need to reverse the contra flow and utilise emergency lane for north bound.
The traffic becomes worse. I never had to wait to tpuch my TnG at Sg Besi toll before. It took muuuuch longer for me to reach the entrance to SMART tunnel to KL city center. It also causes bad traffic on the other side too.
Because at the end of the contra lane, the vehicles will enter back the main road.
Unlike contra lane at Duta Toll, it goes different direction.
I wonder if anyone that decides these changes have any education in how traffic works and how to create a flow in the traffic. The issue is that there is no control of traffic that merge in to the Highway – this cause constants breaking and backed up traffic. Please read some documentation from other countries how to handle this situation or even easier – check Youtube!
kindly inform in a big notice the contra flow ends at where..Morning 6am so dark cannot read anytg. i guess many not using it yet because they duno where is the end of it.
create a accident this morning. can claim DBKL
30/4 happen accident again, Honda owner really sad to this issue
Today no counterflow! Why? Do they cancel?
ya, why x contra on 2.5.2024????? why on n off ikut suka???? please make official announcement whether its on or not.
It didn’t make sense to have such bad traffic at 6.30 AM as you exit the Sg. Besi toll heading towards KL. The contraflow is a great idea because after its implementation, there’s no more backed up traffic. I also haven’t noticed any traffic jam on the opposite side [before 7 AM].
For those who travel towards the South, maybe leave the house a little early (as what people working in KL have been doing since forever) .
