KUALA LUMPUR – PLUS Malaysia Berhad (PLUS) expects a surge of 2.0 to 2.3 million vehicles daily on its highways between March 27 and 29, as travellers stream back into the Klang Valley after the Hari Raya Aidilfitri holidays.

In a statement, PLUS said the traffic swell involves both long-distance commuters and intercity travellers returning from major towns.

“Users are strongly advised to adhere to the MyPLUS-TTA digital travel schedule, available via the PLUS application. Planning return journeys according to these recommended travel times will significantly assist in alleviating traffic congestion along the highway,” the statement read.

To ease the festive rush, PLUS has activated Smart Lanes at 34 strategic locations and deployed PLUSRonda teams on 24-hour patrols to provide immediate assistance.

“Facilities at all Rest and Service Areas (R&R) and laybys have also been enhanced to accommodate the higher volume of visitors during this period,” it added.

Highway users are reminded to check their Touch ’n Go card and eWallet balances before travelling to avoid delays at toll plazas.

Travellers can access live traffic information via the PLUS app, Virtual Assistant PUTRI, social media channels X @plustrafik and @lpt2trafik, Variable Message Signs (VMS), and major national radio stations. – March 26, 2026
