GEMAS: As of 11am today, the Kilometer 43 Jalan Tampin-Gemas which has been closed yesterday due to the overflowing of Sungai Kelamah that had inundated the road is still closed to all road users.
A spokesman from the state’s Works Department said, although the water level in the area had receded today, the road was damaged and needed to be monitored before it could be reopened to the public. “The bridge across the Sungai Kelamah too is badly damaged. We need to clean and fix it first before we can open it to all road users,” he said.
The Kilometer 43 Jalan Tampin-Gemas has been closed since yesterday’s morning and all road users from Gemas heading to Tampin and Kuala Pilah will have to use alternative roads, via FELDA Bukit Rokan in Gemencheh and FELDA Pasir Besar in Gemas.
