Suke phase 1 opens Sept 16, toll-free for a month - Fadillah

Motorists using phase one of the Sungai Besi–Ulu Kelang Elevated Expressway (Suke) that opens tomorrow will enjoy toll-free access for a month, Senior Works Minister Fadillah Yusof said.

He said the highway could become a major alternative route in several strategic locations such as MRR2, Jalan Ampang and Jalan Loke Yew, reducing traffic congestion by up to 36 percent during peak hours and saving travel time from 75 minutes to 25 minutes.
