LDP-Contraflow

The Damansara-Puchong Highway (LDP)'s three-month contraflow traffic system trial will have its time period revised tomorrow. Previously running from 6.30am to 9.30am, it will be shortened by half an hour from 6.30am to 9.00am.

The contraflow lane will start at KM21 (Kelana Jaya-bound) of the LDP in Puchong (opposite HSBC, right after IOI Mall), with the exit at KM18. The contraflow lane is for light vehicles and Touch n Go users only. Keep to the rightmost lane to enter the contraflow lane, which will take you pass the clogged stretch between Puchong Jaya and the Petaling Jaya Toll Plaza.

Having the contraflow lane means that Plaza A at the Petaling Jaya Toll Plaza in the opposite direction (from Sunway) will be closed. Motorists from Sunway to KESAS/Puchong can continue to use Plaza B during contraflow hours.

Since the contraflow trial has been running for about two weeks now, what do you think of the contraflow system? Does it work, or is it making things worse? We've seen plenty of posts from unhappy LDP users on social media platforms saying it has made things worse, but we're wondering if there are any happy users out there. Please do share your thoughts.
