I took a ride home via the newly completed Smart Tunnel linking Sg Besi Road and Jalan Tun Razak by passing most of the traffic jam along the road above. The ride I would say, so-so and not really impressed. I could say the completion was kind of a rush job actually. Though it was a trial period, the ride wasn't smooth, the road was bumpy and what more, I felt as if I was trapped in a box while driving thru the tunnel. Even then, there wasn't any phone reception at all down there. It kept me wondering how should I cry for help if I were to be trapped inside.
There is only 2 lane and it leads to either Jalan Sultan Ismail and Jalan Tun Razak. As soon as I arrived at the exit for Jalan Tun Razak, I kinda find myself getting stucked in the usual traffic jam. Besides, the road leading to the exit was then mellowed down to 1 lane which automatically created a bottle neck and what more, when there is no room for tunnel expansion in near future. Hmmm... I am wondering what will the response be if the fee for the toll is bound to be high.
However, it is still a good attempt to ease the traffic woes and flood in the heart of KL.
Herewith are the pictures I managed to snap.
