samkps,

Thanks for all the info. Any idea where in Ukay Perdana will the interchange be ?

I think the current phase does not include the stretch from ukay perdana to UIAM, means the Klang Gates Dam is untouched.

Furthermore, they also have relocated the ampang interchange to be 1 km away from Ampang water catchment area, which is used to be only 300m away..

Traffic, noise and dust. This place is know for its tranquillity and fresh air. With the new highway, believe it will not be the same.

Why need to reconsider? Worry of incoming traffic?  hmm.gif

Read in the EKVE website that they are scrapping the Ukay Perdana - IIUM link, which means you are right to say traffic will be minimal at Ukay Perdana.

Anyway, the project hasn't even started yet. So, we don't even know if it will remain as a 'Proposed Project'.

Oic... Well, I think Klang valley currently is undergoing development, there are more and more place shall be developed... Sometime that's the price we need to pay if we want to ensure the sustainability of the development...

By the way, I think most of the traffic shall go out from the Ampang interchange, Ukay Perdana interchange should have relatively less vehicle I presume...

'As a result, the alignment was found no longer financially viable and the Federal Government later decided that the EKVE ends at Ukay Perdana only and termed it as Phase 1'.

Meaning to say, it is very subjective. They may come up with phase 2, then 3......But believe that won't happen until the next decade. Haha.

so funny. jam crazy more @ mrr2

However, after it was presented to the state government in March 2008, AZRB was asked to review it especially concerning stretches between Ukay Perdana to UIA (last 10 km) due to the sensitivity of its closeness to Klang Gate Dam and Taman Melawati residential area.

Site visits and meetings by technical committee members had resulted in the emergence of several options based on various reasons and constraints. (Please refer to Table 2 for the comparison of route from Option 1 to Option 8C)

Later in April 2010, state authority had agreed with the proposed alignment of EKVE with a condition that AZRB has to realign the Option 8 alignment by avoiding the quartz ridge zone and the Klang Gate Dam.

Finally in November 2010, the state government had agreed to Option 8C (modified Option 8 - using tunnel underneath quartz ridge and circumvent Klang Gate Dam). Unfortunately the option had incurred an additional construction cost due to the increase in highway length by 5 km (from original 35km to 40km).

As a result, the alignment was found no longer financially viable and the Federal Government later decided that the EKVE ends at Ukay Perdana only and termed it as Phase 1.
