Tell it to MPSJ Councillor Rajiv - traffic problems

[currymee]

Rajiv,

The U-turn at traffic light at Persiaran Tujuan into USJ3 and USJ4/1 - CAN or CANNOT U-TURN ?

I asked the traffic police, she said "close one eye" but up to MPSJ ... so what are you guys playing ???????

Please think carefully as USJ3 and USJ4/1 residents are also tax-payers and voters !!! We have enough of being "screwed around" over the last 10 years as far as traffic into our areas are concerned !!

[CCY]

The controller is spoilt, MPSJ is in the midst of getting it replaced. The contractor/supplier we have is playing hardball, causing some delay in rectification. my apologies.

Looks like this traffic controller would never be upgraded to an intelligent/adaptive traffic controller for years to come . If you have to wrestle for one , an intelligent one , I believed there would be a lot of supporters behind you .
I understand the position you are in here at the moment and hopefully you are not tied by some unseen hands..!!.

Currymee - Noticed that the traffic light controller logic seems to have been changed after CNY holidays.

I was told and I also noticed that at the peak hours in the evening, the U-turn have about half the time while the go-ahead green is still green. The other half the time is to allow the opposite traffic to move ahead (north-bound). Seems like a new idea being implemented. But this idea seems to be falling apart causing huge long traffic snarl all the way to the Fed H/W during the evening peak traffic since beginning this week when the usual peak traffic resumed after the CNY holidays.

Hello Rajiv, wud be great if you cud review and revert back to the previously working traffic sequencing logic which had been working very well ?

ABSOLUTE CHAOS

I'm sorry there was one controller breakdown after the other. But I believe this has been resolved now.

It has been modified again since then. How's it now?

It's still chaos in the morning from USJ 12 towards USJ 3 along Persiaran Tujuan from as early as 6:45am to 9:30am.
It is really testing our patience. One should personally go through the experience to feel the effecetiveness of the new system.
Please revert back to old system ASAP.

I just think Taipan area traffic woes will continue and persist indefinitely. I just don't see anymore avenues or superior practical ideas to result in reducing traffic or enforcement measures.

Rajiv,
what about this;

1. Built Canopy on top of pavement at USJ6, USJ11 and USJ 9 where there are already parking area and link them to Taipan. People who work in Taipan get to park there at attractive discount price.

2. Issue summon daily at Taipan.

3. At Taipan, built a drive through payment booth(cash and credit card) for summon. People who paid in the same day get attractive discount.

4. This way, hopefully reduce traffic congestion at Taipan and MPSJ gets more income.

Hello Rajiv, Good job to get the traffic signalling more user friendly..
Will assume that the intelligence from the sensors at the traffic junction will have to be removed to implement an overidding factor on mix signalling instead of the 'all-stop' traffic signalling so proposed before this recent episode.

Do the sensing devices still have any use now after the changes implemented? If so, then the traffic congestion shud improve. On the contrary, it does not seem so as I have seen traffic queues for the right-turning traffic accumulating at peak hours. In this case, you will need to keep fine-tuning the traffic signalling at different times of the day...

[fonzie]

The queue phenomenon may not be due to the timing of the lights....per se. Perhaps this feedback may be useful.....

1. I think it is also due to vehicles coming out from the USJ4 petrol stations and attempting to traverse over THREE LANES in the shortest possible distance. Just to turn right to USJ Summit direction or U-turn back to USJ5 and beyond....

I kow tow to such motorists for such (brave?) skills and persistence. I empathised with them. However, perhaps they can change their routes and if possible avoid doing that during the peak hours?

Perhaps drive along the back road dividing USJ3 and USJ4 - hope I got the roads correct. And make the turn from the SMK USJ12 area.

It is tough for motorists driving straight towards Lick Hung to give way for them due to the sheer volume of vehicles/motor cyclists (especially) following behind. One slight swerve can cause a nasty accident...

One motorist may give you way, but the other motorist on the next lane may not give in. Hence you have a stalemate and a gridlock situation. It all boils down to courtesy on the road.....hard to educate people....

2. It is also due to motorists forming another queue at the most left lane - they "squeeze in" from the lane meant for vehicles to turn left to the school and USJ4. And thus block/caused traffic to slowly move bumper-to-bumper along this left lane.

I sometimes feel like getting a concrete barrier and block this turn area so that no vehicles can do the "squeeze-in" thingy...!

I hope you can visualise what I am trying to explain..

Cheers!

Perhaps, we shud have the entry/exit to these petrol stations sealed off, so that there will be no traffic in/out to/from these stations/shops/schools. That will solve the problem! Perhaps, we shud also seal off the Pers. Tujuan/Murni Traffic Junction including Pers. Tujuan/Perpaduan and make Pers. Tujuan an expressway all the way to the exit to Fed H/way.

Perhaps, we shud have an elevated expressway right over Pers. Tujuan. at all these traffic junctions.

Good suggestion ! But will it work?.The best solution is enter Taipan and pay hourly .( maybe RM2 per hour ) ..but half hour free.( you can finish dining in 1 hr. and free 2 cars for each tenant,while the rest is RM250 per day.

This is an old problem which I posted in your thread and now trying Dr Loi's thread...the double U-turn infront of Carrefore at Jalan Kemajuan. Still no solution ah?

Double U turn is an attitude problem. Nothing a councillor can do...Only the police has the authority to issue summon for such offense. Also Councillor has no control nor power to instruct the pdrm lah.

In fact as a citizen, maybe you can also complain to the public bureau on the lack of action by the cops.
