Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) has announced the trial phase of a road closure at Jalan Kerinchi, which commenced on 1 September. The closure affects the right turn from Jalan Kerinchi to Jalan Kerinchi Kiri 3 located at the intersection of SMK Seri Pantai and RHB Bank.
It will be in effect from Monday to Friday, between 5pm and 7pm. The purpose of the closure is to ease congestion during peak evening hours near schools and business centres along the Kerinchi stretch.
During the closure period, motorists will be required to follow a diversion route if they wish to enter Jalan Kerinchi Kiri 3. The diversion route involves making a U-turn ahead by turning right into Jalan Kerinchi Kiri 1, then right into Jalan Kerinchi Kiri, followed by a left into Jalan Kerinchi before turning left into Jalan Kerinchi Kiri 3.
The new traffic arrangement is indicated with red arrows on the DBKL map to guide road users through the diversion. If there are any questions or objections regarding the road closure, motorists can email jpb@dbkl.gov.my.
