Continuing the train of thought storytelling from the article The new pedestrian bridge to Masjid Jamek Kuala Lumpur.
Thursday afternoon 19th October 2017. After spending some time at the wife's office in Rawang town I decided to check out a new development just outside town.
By using Google Map I found the closest access point to the said development. It is a small road which has been closed for some time.
Parking the car besides the entry point I continued by walking...
After 300 metres or so I arrived at the development...
Welcome to the Rawang Bypass.
Extending 7 km from Serendah north of Rawang going south towards Kuala Lumpur it is also known as the Rawang-Serendah Bypass.
Yet to be opened although looking like it is already completed it bypasses the heavy traffic which tends to plague areas around Rawang.
What is amazing it is situated largely on high grounds passing through the slopes of a large hill which the regular north-south road seeks to avoid by covering an extra 4 km or so to reach the same points.
It is also aligned to minimise intrusion into the local flora and fauna which consist mainly of a species of trees known as the Giam Kanching,
The species is said to be available only around this hill. You can't find it anywhere else in the world.
The views around here are amazing with the overhead road going as high as 60 metres from the ground...
