Information from Tuan Haji Abdul Hamid bin Surip, Deputy Director of Jabatan Pengangkutan Bandar DBKL that all the preliminary works has been completed, such as the layout plan has been approved and a contractor for the civil work appointed.
The civil work and appointment of a contractor is under the responsibility of Jabatan Kerja Awam DBKL. According to him Jabatan Pengangkutan Bandar DBKL is all ready to install the traffic lights as soon as Jabatan Kerja Awam DBKL hand over a ready-to-install site. The delay of about 2 weeks are due to the failure of the contractor appointed by the Jabatan Kerja Awam DBKL to commence and complete the civil work.
Nevertheless Tuan Haji Abdul Hamid bin Surip will his best to get things done as soon as possible, and he will have a discussion with Jabatan Kerja Awam DBKL,
In the meantime Puncak Jalil residents will be patient, as the dream traffic light will materialise very soon.
