Latest - DANGER ZONE from Perling/Bt Indah back to SG

 

 

 

Happen to encounter a really dangerous filter exit a few weeks/mths back. I personally went to recover victims/bikes/cars as a few of my friends were taken down/out by the "un-announced" sweeping left.

 

First timers or seasoned trips, were not spared. Hope this is beneficial to riders/drivers who goes to Nusa Bandajaya, Perling & Bukit Indah for supper/rides.

GENERAL DIRECTION & LOCATION

 

http://www.ar2performance.com/temp/danger01.jpg

 

 

NS-highway from Perling, Nusa Bandajaya, Bukit Indah towards Singapore, you will need to make a left filter in order to get to Singapore customs.

 

 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

 

ENLARGED AREA OF DANGER ZONE

 

http://www.ar2performance.com/temp/danger02.jpg

 

If you miss this left filter, slow down!!! The straight on direction is an un-finished expressway. 3 lane roads ends with metal barriers & water barriers, leaving only a left sharp sweeper.

 

On the direction from SG to Perling, it pretty obvious as you would have already exited via PASIR GUDANG, and the left is blocked off. Kinda safer.

Barriers..!!!

SLightly decreasing radius too

http://www.ar2performance.com/temp/danger08.jpg

 

 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

 

These pictures were taken AFTER the m'sian authorities did some safety measures. These were new (pretty obvious) :-

 

1. Gradual metal & water barriers leading from the 1st lane to the sweeper.

2. LARGE yellow signboards to indicate sweep.

3. Reflective "cateyes" mounted on the new barriers.

4. Re-painted white lines & chevron

5. Flood lights to be switched on (not sure abt this... haven't been to the same spot at night)

 

 

 

So what was before?

 

1. Metal & water barriers were perpendicular to the driver/riders. YES 90 degress FACING YOUR MOTORCYCLE!

2. NO signboards preceding the filter

3. Absense of reflective "cateyes"

4. Dull fainted lines & chevrons & markings (ON AN EXPRESSWAY WITH A DEAD END.. sigh..)

5. Extremely dead dark no lights after the proper left filter to SG (usually a tell tale sign that you have missed the filter). Only lit a little when you are approaching the barrier.

 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Hope the above info helps riders/pillions/drivers/passenger one way or another. I myself have missed the exit once in a while even though Perling used to be a weekly affair on weekend nights. To realize the mistake early, not only enables oneself to rectify it, most importantly it reduces the chance of a follower into mistake.

They are "redone" recently. I swore the following mentioned were not present.

 

The barriers and stuff are new as seen from the color difference. So are the new road markings.

 

FUNNI THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE AN AWAS SIGN

[Ones_Co]

Just went there last week... seen like the construction finish liao... but i have not try it...

 

cause i'm heading back singapore but i saw the sign board say that the road is open...

The road lead to Pontian and it is now opened. See announcement section from PLUS for more information. I have checked out the entry point of Pontian Link and confirm that the road construction have been completed.

Latest - Addition of HUMPS at Bukit Tinggi

 

 

Guys, I dunno whether this has been posted here b4 but me and Qranc21 and another fren had a big surprise when we went up to Bukit Tinggi last night. There were humps lah!! The last time we went there was in March 2008.

 

We almost flew out. There were warnings but not clear enough. They were all b4 the right turn at the T-junction. Please be careful when u see a dark patch coz they were humps without the yellow lines.

[YuaN_]

thanks for the info.... hope we have more updates on all this danger zone
