Plus Expressway

The Plus expressway goes from Johor Bahru all the way up north till Bukit Kaya Hitam. This very expressway links the south with the north of Peninsular Malaysia (west coast) which during it's inception brought many good to the nation's interstate trade, amongst others.

These fotos were taken on the 5th of May 2007 around milestones 290 - 350, right after Perak's toll south bound to Kuala Lumpur. Erm.. ok children, don't do this, taking fotos with a dSLR while driving ain't exactly the safest thing to do.



At some parts they are expanding the lanes from 2 to 3 lanes. Which really doesn't make sense to me. This expressway is only congested during the holiday periods especially Hari Raya and the Chinese New year. For a cummulative 7-10 days a year congestion, would it seem even remotely necessary for such an upgrade? Hey nothing comes for free right? Next year, the toll fare for Plus expressway is due for a review (in other words, hike!). You be the judge.
