MPSJ engineering department deputy director Mohd Ariffuddin Ismail said the tests would be conducted from Monday to Saturday from 8am to 5pm. Prasarana's main contractor Trans Resources Corporation senior project manager Zabri Ahmad Shah, who will be overseeing the tests, said noise and light vibrations should be expected only during the first week.

Do not double park in Brickfields, says Nong Chik Posted: 04 Oct 2011 06:25 AM PDT FEDERAL Territories and Urban Wellbeing Minister Datuk Raja Nong Chik Raja Zainal Abidin has advised the public shopping in Brickfields for the Deepavali festival to be courteous and not double park. Nong Chik said Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) officers would carry out enforcement to ensure a smooth traffic flow in the township during the festive period. He advised the people to be patient and bear with the congestion for the time being. "The bazaars are an opportunity for the low-income earners to make a living. "The festive seasons are the best time for the poor to do business so please be patient with them,'' he said. Nong Chik also warned traders doing business in the area not to block the tactile blocks which had been put in place to guide the blind. He said this after presenting 80 traders with licences to conduct business in Brickfields for the Deepavali festival. This year, 641 traders were given licences to conduct business in Kuala Lumpur. The Deepavali bazaars will operate from now until Oct 25, from 11am to 11pm. The bazaar locations are in Lorong Tuanku Abdul Rahman, Lebuh Ampang, Brickfields, Sentul, Masjid India and Jalan Ipoh. |
