PETALING JAYA, SELANGOR, Tues. Traffic flow to Damansara Perdana will be smoother with the opening of the Damansara Perdana-Sprint Expressway interchange today. The RM24 million MK Land interchange project provides motorists with direct access to the Sprint Expressway or Penchala Link from Damansara Perdana, bypassing the Lebuhraya Puchong-Damansara, thus improving accessibility to the township. The new interchange allows swifter passage for those entering and exiting Damansara Perdana during peak hours, and motorists heading towards Kuala Lumpur using the Sprint Expressway. The alternative route enables motorists to skip the LDP tunnel during heavy traffic conditions. Prior to the opening of the interchange, motorists from Damansara Perdana heading towards Petaling Jaya and Kuala Lumpur had to spend 10 to 15 minutes just getting through the tunnel.
