Good news for folks in Bandar Mahkota Cheras and Bandar Sungai Long, who have longed for an alternate road out of these townships to the Cheras Kajang highway. Many years of traffic congestions in and out during peak hours.
I heard from a little bird it was to open today, but the latest news was it is on hold due to disputes on the ownership of the land.
Wait and see....

Congratulations to the BMC folks - the voice of peoples have finally being heard by the relevant parties. In celebrating the victory, nevertheless due respect must be given to the existing users of Kampung Batu 10 who have been suffering since the BMCians are allowed to use the access to Jalan Cheras, by-passing the Grand Saga toll.
It has to be noted and acknowledged that the traffic light are meant for the current users. Until such system is adjusted to cater the BMCians, please consider the Kampung Batu 10folks who are now being victimised everytime we are to go out.
So much of wanting your rights to be respected, please also respect us and give us our due right whenever you see any kampung folks car coming from either your left or right hand side of the road.
Some minor incidents had happened at the junction as similar traffic light are being used by users of different directions.
I do not think that it is necessary for us to assert our right at the junction or just allow you people to pass through as we will never get our chance to.
As such, with much humbleness, please please please consider us the minority existing users of Kampung Batu 10. We have no problem sharing the access with you but do not go beyond what we can tolerate.
