Demonstration on the proposed EDL toll charges

Monday, 20 February 2012 11:04

JOHOR BARU: The Johor Baru MCA Youth and Gerakan Youth conducted a peaceful demonstration here recently, to show their disapproval on the proposed toll charges following the opening of the Eastern Dispersal Link (EDL).

Johor Baru MCA youth chief Kua Song Tuck said he had received many complaints from the public especially Malaysians working in Singapore about the charges.

“These people travel to Singapore daily and are worried that they will not be able to survive if the proposed toll which is five times the present amount is implemented.

He explained that the government should seriously conduct a proper survey and suggest a reasonable amount for the toll,” he said during the protest conducted along Jalan Lingkaran Dalam on Thursday.

He said the government should seriously look into the matter as it affected thousands of motorists and could be used against them by the Opposition.

It was previously reported that the 8.1km EDL would force all motorists travelling to and from Singapore to pay about five times more than the present RM2.90, both ways.

The RM1.1bil EDL, developed by MRCB Bhd, linking the North-South Expressway to the Johor Baru Customs, Immigration, Quarantine Complex, is aimed at reducing congestion in the city area.

The EDL is directly linked to the North-South Expressway.
