The stretch between Shah Alam and Subang on the New Klang Valley Expressway (NKVE) was severely congested at noon today, 24 November, due to floods caused by heavy downpour
A road user, identified only as Adam, told SAYS it took him two hours to travel from Klang to Kuala Lumpur, a journey that normally takes about an hour.
"I departed from Bukit Tinggi, Klang at 11.40am and expected to arrive at my venue in Taman Tun Dr Ismail (TTDI) around 12.40pm.
"However, Waze diverted me off NKVE and routed me through small inner Meru–Kapar roads before reconnecting me to the Damansara–Shah Alam Elevated (DASH) Expressway.
"My ETA on Waze kept being pushed back, and I arrived at TTDI at 1.40pm, 40 minutes late for my meeting!" said Adam.
As early as 9.04am today, PLUS Expressway reported that flash floods had affected the left lane of the road leading to the Shah Alam toll plaza from the Guthrie Corridor Expressway (GCE).

The account provides updates frequently, usually once every hour, on a specific area if there is pre-existing congestion.
