KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Highway Authority (LLM) and the Setiawangsa-Pantai Expressway (SPE) concessionaire have been instructed to immediately inspect the cracks on the Jalan Cheras flyover. Works Minister Datuk Sri Alexander Nanta Linggi, in a post on X, said the safety of all quarters, especially road users, must be prioritised. He said this in response to a post on X that pointed out the increasingly visible cracks on the flyover. 'I take this matter seriously,' said Nanta. The SPE, fully opened on Nov 3 last year, features a dual-two carriageway and seven elevated interchanges. The expressway is divided into four main sections, namely Kerinchi - Salak (Section 1), Salak - Pandan (Section 2), Pandan - Setiawangsa (Section 3) and Setiawangsa - Taman Melati (Section 4), spanning a total distance of 20.7 kilometres. It connects several other highways, including the SPRINT Highway, Ampang-Kuala Lumpur Elevated Highway (AKLEH), Duta-Ulu Kelang Expressway (DUKE) and the Kuala Lumpur Middle Ring Road 2 (MRR2), to enhance network efficiency and reduce congestion in Kuala Lumpur.
