In a statement today, DBKL said the Cabinet committee on road safety and traffic congestion had decided that Jalan Sultan Ismail, from the Jalan Raja Chulan intersection to the Jalan Bukit Bintang intersection, will revert to its original one-way stretch beginning at 12.01am next Monday.

It said the decision was made after conducting studies and considering feedback received during the trial period which began on May 1.

“The Cabinet committee is committed to addressing traffic congestion issues, particularly in Kuala Lumpur.

“By returning Jalan Sultan Ismail to its original direction, we hope the traffic flow will stabilise, especially in the surrounding areas,” it said.
