New Ramp in Brickfields

Published: 03/18/2010 by TheStar Metro Central

A NEW ramp known as Ramp 6 will be opened today after 10am for the convenience of motorists heading to Taman Seputeh from Jalan Syed Putra via Jalan Tun Sambanthan.

It is an arched bridge across the Klang River and is located next to the Brickfields police station.

Traffic headed to Taman Seputeh from Petaling Jaya can now use Ramp 6 via Jalan Syed Putra, by turning left into Jalan Tun Sambanthan to reach Taman Seputeh.

This is a direct route as there is no need to stop at the traffic lights. Previously, traffic from Petaling Jaya heading to Taman Seputeh was required to use Jalan Tun Sambanthan 2, Jalan Thamby Abdulah and Jalan Tun Sambantan 1 to get to Taman Seputeh.

As for traffic heading to Kuala Lumpur from Taman Seputeh, motorists can use Jalan Tun Sambanthan to access Jalan Syed Putra by turning right just before the Brickfields police station to get onto Ramp 6 to Kuala Lumpur. The present ramp at the Jalan Syed Putra bridge, will be closed today due to road work.

Traffic from Brickfields heading to Kuala Lumpur via Jalan Tun Sambanthan can now turn left onto Ramp 6 to get onto Jalan Syed Putra to Kuala Lumpur.

The entire project is expected to be completed by mid-July.ontact the DBKL Call centre at 1800-88-3255.
