Motorists urged to be cautious as several roads in capital hit by flash floods

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 16 — Heavy rain since 7.30pm in the capital has caused several main roads to be flooded.

The Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) said the flooded locations are Jalan Parliment in front of Bank Rakyat, Jalan Sultan, Jalan Pudu near Tung Shin Hospital, and Jalan Kuching below the Segambut Roundabout.

DBKL officers have been deployed to the locations involved to control the traffic situation and help rescue if needed.

“A total of 120 DBKL personnel are on duty and prepared to face any eventualities on the ground involving the flying squads, emergency teams, rescue squads, traffic wardens and towing teams.

"Road users are urged to be cautious and avoid roads that are flooded and always monitor the weather forecast and situation,” it said in a statement tonight.
