OVER-LADEN TRUCKS AFFECTING ROAD





TAWAU: Timber concessionaires and logging truck drivers are reminded to also consider the safety of the people and not just think about chasing profits.

State Infrastructure Development Assistant Minister Datuk Pang Yuk Ming said the Ministry had received reports from the Public Work Department (PWD) and contractor of the Kalabakan-Sapulut Road that they faced difficulty in completing the upgrading project in time due to overloaded logging trucks using the the road.
"We have been informed about the situation and it is worried that the life span of the road will not be as long as it should be," he said, after inspecting the Redevelopment/Upgrading Project of the Kalabakan-Sapulut road here.

Pang said the relevant authority and Yayasan Sabah had agreed that each logging truck using the road must not be overloaded but the situation still continued even though the PWD, Road Transport Department, police and contractor have been conducting frequent road blocks.

He said the truck drivers could sense it whenever there is a roadblock.

"One of the ways to ensure this would stop is to create awareness among the timber concessionaires and truck drivers. We really hope they will abide by the load limit," he said. - Sabahkini

  6. mungkin masalah ini boleh selesai jika JPJ kerap mengadakan sekatan jalanraya di laluan yang sering digunakan kenderaan berat ini..
