The traffic heading to the East Coast is reported to be congested with an 11-kilometre crawl after a trailer caught fire in Genting Sempah Tunnel at about 1.37am.
A Malaysian Highway Authority (MHA) spokesperson said following the incident, MHA opened a contraflow lane at KM36.9 west bound to KM38.2 before the tunnel from 8.24am to 9.06am for works to remove the trailer.
“Works on removing the trailer have completed and the lanes in the tunnel were reopened at 9.06am but traffic is still congested.
"The trailer's driver was unhurt and the vehicle was only razed in the front section,” he said when contacted by Bernama today.
Meanwhile, a PLUS Malaysia Berhad spokesperson said traffic was reported to be slow moving from Tapah to Gopeng.
