TRAFFIC flow on several highways and trunk roads heading north, south and towards the east coast is slow, following the “balik kampung” exodus of people returning to their hometowns for Hari Raya Aidilfitri.

The Malaysian Highway Authority (LLM) reported heavy and slow-moving traffic for 6.3km from Gombak, Selangor, to Genting Sempah, Pahang, as of 9.30pm.

PLUS Expressways Bhd also reported slow-moving traffic for 10km from Gopeng to Simpang Pulai in Perak.

Traffic is smooth on federal roads.

Traffic moving in and out of Seremban, Negri Sembilan, was also under control from 6pm to 8pm. A survey found no congestion in both directions of the North-South Expressway near the Seremban toll plaza.
