Most residents against road closure

AMAN Suria Residents Association chairman Wendy Chan feels that Jalan Tanjung should remain open.

“The problem of the Tropicana tunnel has just been solved and when Jalan Tanjung closes, the tunnel will pose another problem as the traffic will spill into BU11 and BU12,” said Chan.

She said many people used the road as an alternative to go to Kota Damansara and Sunway Damansara.

“Those staying in TR1 would have to make a big turn just to go home. It will also be a nightmare for parents who are sending their children to the SRJK(C) Damansara,” she said.

SRJK (C) Damansara board chairman Michael Tang said the road closure would have affect the school as there would be no holding area for parents’ cars.

“There is a road divider there now and if they close the road, parents won’t be able to turn into the school,” he said.

Tang added that it would be difficult for parents from areas like Damansara Utama, Damansara Jaya and Bandar Utama to send their children to school.

Bandar Utama Residents Association chairman Datuk Manpal Singh said the residents of Bandar Utama had no objection over the road closure.

He said the move would help to ease the traffic congestion in Bandar Utama.

“There are no objections so far from the area committee of BU11 and BU12.

“We don’t think traffic spilling into these areas will be significant,” he said.
