The missing link between Puchong Hartamas and Bandar Puteri Puchong will be completed by September, says the Subang Jaya Municipal Council (MPSJ).The 300m link was supposed to have been completed in May, following the negotiations in April.
It was agreed that the developers from both residential areas and the MPSJ would build the road together.
The plan was for the developers to lengthen the roads that serve as entrances into their respective areas, and once the works were done, MPSJ would connect these two entrances to form a link.
At the moment, the developers have done their part and it is now left to the council to link up the entrances.
When visiting the construction site recently, Kinrara assemblyman Teresa Kok expressed her dissatisfaction towards the delay.
“The construction of the road linking two neighbouring residential areas is a simple project, and MPSJ has many qualified engineers, so why is there a delay?” she asked.
MPSJ councillor Gary Chong pointed out that due to the lack of supervision and examination from the council, one of the developers did not construct the road based on the proposed level.
“Now, the level of the two entrances are different and it makes the linking difficult,” he said.
When contacted, a spokesperson from MPSJ said the delay was due to a technical problem involving the gradient of the road.
“It’s all right now, we will continue with the construction. Also, we need to raise the manhole as there is a water pipe underneath the road.
“This is to facilitate any servicing works in the future for Syabas,” he said.
He promised the road would be completed by Sept 21.
