Several major roads in Ipoh closed to traffic

IPOH: Several sections of all major roads leading to the Perak state secretariat building will be closed to traffic for the state assembly sitting tomorrow.

Ipoh OCPD Asst Comm Azisman Alias said roadblocks would be set up at the Jalan Panglima Bukit Gantang Wahab-Jalan St John junction and near the Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman flyover from 9pm tonight.

He advised motorists to follow instructions from the police who would be on duty to divert traffic at Jalan Lim Bo Seng, Jalan S.P. Seenivasagam, Jalan Kompleks Islam and Jalan Istana.

ACP Azisman said motorists heading towards the city from Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman would be diverted to Jalan Raja Musa Aziz.

“Motorists heading towards the Medan Kidd bus station from Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman would be diverted into Jalan Tun Abdul Razak,” he said in a statement yesterday.

He said all motorists from the city heading towards the state secretariat building would be diverted into Jalan St John.

“Motorists heading towards the city area from Jalan Silibin will have to use either Jalan Raja Musa Aziz or Jalan Tun Abdul Razak. Those using Jalan St John would be directed into Jalan S.P. Seenivasagam,” he added.

ACP Azisman said all affected roads would be reopened to the public tomorrow afternoon.

We all know what the outcome will be and is it necessary to close the road which was linked to the main town and 2 schools? This is extreamly unconvinient to the Rakyat as we need to go on our daily chores. This also show how BAD BN need to win and win they shall be BUT without GLORY and with SHAME. We expect 5 years will be given back to BN again and if they failed once more to capture the heart of the Rakyat. Then we shall see the effect in the ballot box again. I do not expect the Rakyat to go all out to protest the high handed method that BN had used as we have dignity of an educated and well brought up person. We have wrongly voted once for YF Hee and this is the outcome. 1 loose end which will be tied in the next EC.
