Talk:SMART Tunnel

Latest comment: 13 years ago by JulesH in topic Major storm operation?

Operation edit

The proposed operation of the tunnels needs to be described better. From memory, the plan is the motorway tunnel will be shut and is part of the stormwater tunnel. I believe some info has been given e.g. for how quickly it's expected the tunnel can be shut down. The capacity etc of the tunnel should probably also be added Nil Einne 11:31, 31 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

i was recently in KL, and saw the tunnel work. something interesting caught my eye. while they were closing the tunnel, i chance upon a couple of cars drive past the cones and into the closed tunnel. i wonder if they will get a watery welcome down there! :P
it appears that:
1. many motorist still doesn't know what the tunnel do.
2. there was no infomation on the closure, so heavy traffic continues to move towards the tunnel. and by the time they discover it is close, the people are struck in traffic for hour trying to get to the older roads.

Not intended to handle flash floods? edit

Some fellow up their in SMART's management stated that the tunnel is not intended to handle flash floods, but only floods from prolonged rainstorms (see page 2 or 3 of yesterday's Metro section of The Star), after various parts of Kuala Lumpur was flooded on Sunday. This contradicts this article's claim that it does handle flash floods. Which is more reliable of a source? - Two hundred percent 10:11, 6 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Retracting. The article was misunderstood, but was misleading anyway by its headline. - Two hundred percent 10:19, 6 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Major storm operation? edit

The article isn't clear, but the use of future tense implies that the third mode of operation (closing the motorway to handle major floods) has not yet been used, despite the tunnel being complete for several years now. Is this the case? Or should we be switching to present tense in this section to match the phrasing of the second mode section? JulesH (talk) 09:18, 17 August 2010 (UTC)Reply
