TANJONG MALIM: Residents near Perumahan Awam 3, Jalan Slim Lama here, are calling for urgent action to install traffic lights at a junction linking the Behrang Stesen-Tanjung Malim Highway (FT193) and Jalan Slim-Behrang Ulu (A121), where they claim frequent crashes, including fatal cases, have occurred.
They described the junction as a high-risk spot for road users, particularly motorcyclists, due to vehicles moving from various directions and heavy vehicles using the route.
Yameeun Marsudi, 75, who has lived in the area since 1996, said traffic lights were urgently needed to regulate traffic flow and reduce the risk of collisions between vehicles.
He said motorists travelling from Tanjong Malim who wished to enter Perumahan Awam 3 had to make a U-turn at the junction, exposing them to the risk of accidents if traffic movement was not properly controlled.
