Ni keadaan sekarang di terowong antara KJ - Ara Damansara.
Daripada Ogos sampai sekarang, masih tiada pembaharuan ataupun pembaikan dari pihak @pjcitycouncil. https://t.co/QzNMsfii9q pic.twitter.com/BCwBHl6BsU
The virtual user highlighted the persisting road issues in the area, emphasizing the lack of solutions despite continual complaints to the Petaling Jaya City Council (@pjcitycouncil) since August.
Dah la jalan ni prone to banjir bila flash flood, berlubang teruk pulak tu @FahmiDoc.

Hal ini pon dah report ke @pjcitycouncil tapi dia buat bodo & tutup je report saying dah dibaiki. pic.twitter.com/8fm1NwABsQ
Expressing disappointment, the user specifically reached out to Dr. Fahmi Ngah, the Chairman of the Standing Committee on Islamic Religious Affairs, Halal Industry, Digital Infrastructure, and Science, Technology, Innovation (STI) Funding, regarding the recurring problem of severe potholes during floods. The virtual user cited the frequent flooding on the road during flash floods and the poor condition of the potholes.

Despite complaints on the KKR's myjalan application to the Minister of Public Works, Datuk Seri Alexander Nanta Linggi (@AlexNantaLinggi) and the Selangor Public Works Department (@JKRSelangor) since the beginning of October, no action or statement has yet been released by the authorities in response to the incident.
Tadi sudah saya gerakkan @pjcitycouncil ke tapak terowong & kenalpasti sbb banjir akibat longkang besar yg tersumbat dgn tanah dlm hoarding projek LRT. MBPJ akan buka hoarding, pembersihan sdg dibuat & akan diselesaikan hari ini. pic.twitter.com/Ix0ejDfLM6
— Dr. Fahmi Ngah (@FahmiDoc) October 24, 2023
Earlier today, Dr. Fahmi Ngah directed the PJ City Council to inspect the tunnel site and identify the cause of the flooding, which was found to be a large drain clogged with soil within the LRT project hoarding. MBPJ will clean the area, and resolve the issue by the end of the day.
