Multiple Landslides Force Evacuations and Road Closures
In a separate incident on the same day, a 40-foot landslide occurred on a hillslope near the main road at Kampung Sungai Merab Luar, Kajang, Selangor.
The Selangor Fire and Rescue Department Operations Center reported that while the landslide blocked the main access road on Jalan Haji Abdullah, no casualties, homes, or vehicles were affected.
Meanwhile, in Taman Bukit Cheras, continuous heavy rain since Tuesday (22 April) has triggered a landslide, resulting in road closures for safety reasons.
Bandar Tun Razak Parliamentary Office visited the site alongside personnel from the Fire and Rescue Department, DBKL, and the Taman Bukit Cheras Neighbourhood Watch Committee (KRT).
Residents living on the affected slope were evacuated pending a detailed assessment from DBKL’s Slope Unit of the Engineering and Urban Transportation Department.
The Klang Valley experienced significant traffic congestion as major highways were impacted by the flash floods, causing delays for many commuters in the area.
Despite the flooding, authorities reported that no evacuations were necessary, although many homes were affected, indicating an ongoing response to the situation.
