These closures, which will occur between 10pm and 5am daily, are necessary for tree-felling works and will involve the leftmost lane between the Jalan Sungai Dua intersection and USM Padang heading towards Komtar, as well as the leftmost lane between Batu Uban Army Camp and Sunny Point heading towards Bayan Lepas. The rightmost lane between Batu Uban Army Camp and the traffic light intersection will also be closed in both directions.
