#NSTviral: Storm leaves Klang Valley roads clogged, hawker stalls wrecked
KUALA LUMPUR: Motorists faced heavy rain, fallen trees and severe traffic congestion across parts of the Klang Valley yesterday, with several roads blocked by fallen trees.
KUALA LUMPUR: Heavy rain and fallen trees caused severe traffic congestion and road closures in the Klang Valley on Sunday. Photos and videos on social media showed traffic reduced to a single lane on the North Klang Valley Expressway near Jalan Duta-Bukit Lanjan and in Damansara Damai.
One user reported the rain wasn't heavy earlier, but traffic had become terrible. Several roads were blocked by branches and tree trunks. A takoyaki seller in Damansara Damai canceled customer orders due to the weather and apologized, asking for prayers to resume business.
A banana fritter seller had to close his stall for two days after his stall and nearby tents were damaged. The post received encouragement from other users. Motorists and motorcyclists joined forces to clear fallen trees and reopen blocked lanes. One user praised Malaysians for helping, thanking those who cleared the trees along the North-South Expressway.
