Jalan Sultan Ismail has been fully reopened to traffic today, according to Jabatan Penerangan WPKL, quoting KLCCC DBKL. This follows yesterday’s fallen tree incident near Concorde Hotel that caused one death, one serious injury and damage to multiple cars.
The stretch, which is a busy section of a major artery in the city centre, has been cleaned up. However, the Monorail track, which was also in the path of the fallen tree, still needs work.
Rapid KL says that currently, cleaning up and rehabilitation work are being done with the assistance of DBKL. The operations team and structural engineers are making detailed checks to ensure that full operations can resume according to the set safety standards.
In the meantime, four stations will be closed to the public due to the need to shut off power to the track. The stations are Bukit Nanas, Raja Chulan, Bukit Bintang and Imbi. To support this disruption, 10 feeder buses will ply the route of the closed stations. The buses are free and will run on a frequency of 30 minutes, depending on traffic conditions.

What if 10 people meninggal dunia in a passing monorail that was struck by the falling tree?
Surely,all the news will centre around this mess.
Yesterday,it was Sultan Ismail.
Weeks later during a messy thunderstorm,it could be Jln Kuching or certain parts of Gombak that have trees that r 40 feet tall with a mickey mouse base.
You can say the best aborists are managing.What happened to the family of the poor man who lost his life?Just in a split few 30 seconds.A funeral and a family thats never the same again.
As usual, ini semua salah this failed Gomen. Now it has killed someone.
Take a look at the roots of the fallen tree. It looks like the roots have been cut to make the pavement.
Whoever cut the roots and whoever in DBKL gave the approval to cut the roots..you have blood on your hands… because of your incompetency, and lazy to take a look at the tree site one life has been lost.
ARE YOU GOING TO FEED THE FAMILY OF THAT DEAD MAN(Alfatihah).
