Hire NowIn preparation for the National Day 2023 celebration in Putrajaya, a total of twenty-two roads leading to the event venue will experience temporary closures on August 31st. The primary goal of these closures, scheduled from 5 a.m. to 11 a.m., is to ensure the seamless execution of the event and its associated activities. Among the affected routes are Persiaran Perdana from Dataran Putra, Lebuh Wawasan, Lebuh Bestari, Lebuh Saujana leading to Persiaran Perdana, Jalan Pembangunan from Jalan Tun Abdul Razak, and Jalan Pemodernan.
Highlighting the significance of these measures, ACP Rizal Abd Rahman Sidek, the Assistant Director of Management (Administration and Budget) in the Police's Management Department, emphasized their role in facilitating the success of the National Day celebration. The official Facebook page of the Kuala Lumpur Traffic Investigation and Enforcement Department is the go-to source to provide the public with detailed information about road closures.
To streamline public movement during this period, the event organizers have arranged to deploy two intermediate buses. These buses, including the Putrajaya Sentral Terminal and the Putrajaya International Convention Centre (PICC), will be stationed strategically. These provisions are aimed at not only ensuring the convenience of attendees but also maintaining the overall organization and security of the National Day celebration.
Tips for Employers
As National Day approaches, Putrajaya employers should consider how the road closures might impact their businesses. To ensure your business operations remain uninterrupted, communicate with your employees in advance, offering remote work options if feasible. This thoughtful approach can demonstrate your support for this significant national event while maintaining productivity.
