KL-Karak Highway – all Kuantan-bound lanes closed at KM 25.75 till August 31 for ECRL construction

If you’re a regular of the KL-Karak Highway, whether to Genting Highlands or the East Coast, take note. Concessionaire AFA Prime has announced a major lane closure on the highway to make way for East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) construction work.

The closure is for all Kuantan-bound lanes heading east, from KM25.75 to KM26.39, and the period is from now till August 31. Throughout this period, a diversion will be activated on the stretch, which means that traffic will be affected in both directions.

This temporary 55-day bottleneck is sure to create a jam, so stay calm and factor in some buffer in your journey plan. Be alert and follow all the signs and crew in the work area. Drive safe.

  • This will cause a panic attack amongst all the motorist headed to Genting or any East coast states. Crazy all lane closure is guaranteed to cause a traffic jam of massive proportions on every weekends. How is this allowed?
