THE Elmina Interchange at the Guthrie Corridor Expressway (GCE), closed following the aircraft crash yesterday, reopened to users at 3.40pm today.

Prolintas Group of Companies (Prolintas) in a statement said the reopened route involves the entrance ramp from Shah Alam to Elmina west, and the entrance ramp to Elmina east from Rawang, along with the exit ramp to Shah Alam.

“One of the two lanes of the road from Elmina west to Rawang is still closed for the authorities to carry on with investigations at the scene. Nevertheless, users can still access the highway.

“The GCE operations team was at the location to observe the damage and is currently carrying out immediate road repairs,” the statement said.

Prolintas said the Fire and Rescue Department team also cleaned up the stretch earlier.

A Beechcraft Model 390 (Premier 1) light business jet aircraft flying from Langkawi to the Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport in Subang crashed at about 2.50pm yesterday, killing the six passengers and two crew on board, as well as two motorists on the ground. – Bernama, August 18, 2023.
