  "summary": "The Malaysia Rapid Transit Corporation has announced partial lane closures along Jalan Sultan Azlan Shah in George Town to facilitate tree-felling works for the upcoming Mutiara Light Rail Transit (LRT) line. These intermittent closures will occur from 10pm to 5am daily, spanning over a period of 45 days. The closures will impact both the leftmost lane between the Jalan Sungai Dua intersection and Universiti Sains Malaysia's field heading towards Komtar, as well as the leftmost lane between the Batu Uban army camp and Sunny Point heading towards Bayan Lepas. The rightmost lane between the Batu Uban army camp and the traffic light intersection will also be closed in both directions. Despite these closures, other lanes will remain open to traffic. Road users are advised to exercise caution and adhere to the signage, traffic cones, and flagmen stationed at the affected locations for their safety.",
