My report of semenyih traffic to KL center (shangri la area). Leave home (Tiara East) at 7am.
Previously i reported it took me avg 45 mins to reach office during the month of Nov and Dec (school holiday konon).
After 2 weeks of enduring the traffic with school reopen, the duration have streatch to 1 hr to easiy 1.5 hr. Avg 1h++
I am stil using th sg. ramal toll, kl - seremban highway, then enter smart tunnel to get into KL. Bottlenecks encounter as compare to previously...sg ramal toll, is still bearable....the worst...right after sg besi toll...it can stretch all the way to smart tunnel on a bad day. Some day, small buildup after sg besi toll, then smooth till after sri petaling exit. Most of the times, after sri petaling, traffic is heavy till smart tunnel, and even smart tunnel can even jam for 20 minutes

Stupid car hogging sultan ismail lane instead of sticking to jln tun razak lane.
So, on a bad day, if traffic jam stretch from sg. besi till smart tunnel, you can easily take 1.5 hr to reach kl central but if you use mex highway after sg besi toll, you can reduce further 20 minutes (which helps a lot if you see big traffic buildup after sri petaling exit).
I may want to try sg. long way to mines and exit to lebuhraya salak b4 joining smart tunnel and the bottle neck of this road is mines area and near midfield place and also lebuhraya salak. I will post more once i do another few trips using that routes.
Hope this provide enough insight of travelling from semenyih. School holidays, nice traffic....non-school holiday....hahaha better leave home at 6am just to skip those congestion entering KL.
i think new EKVE highway can cut short the distance & time to town center since we can bypass cheras area.
