Landslide: Left lane at Km263.6 Plus highway near Menora Tunnel closed
IPOH: The left lane at the landslide site at Km263.6 of the North-South Expressway (southbound) will be closed with safety cones, covering about 1km from Km262.8 to Km263.8.
A landslide has forced the closure of the left lane at Km263.6 on the North-South Expressway near the Menora Tunnel. Perak police chief Datuk Mohd Alwi Zainal Abidin announced the 1km closure, stretching from Km262.8 to Km263.8. The precautionary measure comes as a traffic jam of 15km was reported yesterday due to a slope collapse on the same stretch.
The lane closure is a precautionary measure, with no contraflow lane in operation yet. Traffic flow is being monitored continuously, and CCTV cameras at a nearby vista point will focus on the incident site for real-time monitoring. Police, PLUS Malaysia Bhd, and relevant agencies are working together to ensure highway user safety.
Motorists are advised to drive cautiously, follow safety instructions, and reduce speed when passing through the area.
