One-Way Streets creating more mess

 

No one complained about the one-way streets here in Aman Puri until more condominiums starting to emerge. 

        Instead of dispersing the traffic, motorists find themselves circulating within the same area only to join back onto the main road where the jam builds up especially during peak hours. 

        What our town planners have failed to realise is that, besides creating inconvenience to the motorists, they are hardly solving the traffic congestion. 

        By turning these roads into one-way streets, residents from Jalan Puri, for example, have to make one big detour before joining back on Persiaran Perdana. 

        Vehicles exiting from Jalan Aman, instead of using the traffic light junction to exit into Persiaran Cemara, have to make a U-turn to meet at the same junction as residents from Jalan Puri. 

        In one particular junction, traffic merge from at least four different directions. It is worse when Selayang Municipal Council does not control the mushrooming of illegal hawkers along Jalan Desa 1/5. 



        Although complaints have been raised a number of times, till today the Selayang Municipal Council has failed to solve the problem. 

        The same matter has been brought up to the local council boys, state assemblyman, Elizabeth Wong, both former and present MPs, Tony Pua and Gobind Singh Deo, state exco Ng Sze Han and Menteri Besar Amirudin Shaari. 

        By turning a blind eye to the problem, MPS is creating a sore point for residents and people are losing patience towards the Selangor State Government over its inaction. 

        I, too, have highlighted this issue since a few years ago. Instead of solving more problems, MPS has created more one-way streets, for example, in Desa Jaya.

Sdr. Gobind, Kalau dah tak nak dengar bisikan, maka laungan kuat perlu dibuat juga

Pada hari ini, 20 hari selepas saya mula menulis blog pos ini, saya hanya kongsikannya kepada beberapa orang. Hanya 30 views. Tapi sehingga ini, kerana tidak ada sebarang jawapan yang diberi oleh YB Gobind, barulah aku kongsikan dengan lebih ramai orang. Memang betul jika pelbagai alasan diberi seperti perlu masa untuk menyelesaikan masalah, kita boleh terima, tapi jika membisu saja, memang sukar kita nak terima.  Yang penting untuk kami adalah YB Gobind lebih peka dengan pelbagai masalah yang dihadapi oleh penduduk tidak kira siapa yang mengadu. Sepatutnya tugas ahli parlimen, ahli dewan undangan negeri, ahli majlis, YDP majlis, Ahli Exco kerajaan negeri Selangor dan Menteri Besar bekerjasama menyelesaikan masalah dengan baik. Sama-sama kita membangunkan negeri Selangor Darul Ehsan.  --------------------------------------------- KAWASAN PARLIMEN Kepong di bawah mantan ahli parlimen YB Dr Tan Seng Giaw memberi sebab saya telah menyokong DAP sejak 1988 lagi, tapi kebelakangan i...

The Need for Intervention

Writing at 2am, don’t expect me to edit the work. It is shared truly from the heart…. Just for illustration purposes A friendly Pakatan Harapan leader has given his feedback to my post about the state of Selangor now.           "I wish I could see who you'll vote," he wrote.           Although we have not met in person, I could sense from our "discussions" in the past, that he is friendly. And he is more inclined to listen if it is rational. Therefore, time spent in 'chatting' with him, I hope has not gone to waste.          My response to him was simple, coming from my own heart: "I want to see improvement in Selangor before next GE especially at the local government level."          To be honest, who else do we want to vote in Selangor in the coming general election? Azmin Ali? In fact, the rot in Selangor had begun since the later part of his first term.     ...

UPDATED 13 DECEMBER 2024: ACID TEST FOR NEXT GE: Can PH State Government in Selangor deliver?

Original report : May 14, 2024 The relevant people below have been informed.  Updated Report for MPS: 27 October 2024 after one week informing the YDP of Majlis Perbandaran Selayang in early October to make sure there is sufficient time to do anything. Updated Report for MBPJ:  13 December 2024. There is more than sufficient time for MBPJ to do something to solve the problems on the ground but see if they are doing anything. By now the Datuk Bandar should have informed the respective directors in charge. We will visit the Sri Damansara PJKita next to see how much of the problems highlighted are solved. Leftover materials from road construction remain abandoned at Jalan Tembaga SD 5/2, Bandar Sri Damansara. NEGERI:                     SELANGOR  MENTERI BESAR:     DATUK SERI AMIRUDIN SHAARI  EXCO:                         YB NG SU...
