“To facilitate the nomination process, several roads, namely, Jalan Serindit, the slip road to the SPS police headquarters, and the slip road to the SPS Public Works Department in the Jawi Multipurpose Hall area will be closed.
“The public is advised to take note of road closures, plan their journeys as best possible and use alternative routes to avoid getting caught in traffic,” he said in a statement today.
