NORTH-SOUTH EXPRESSWAY NORTHERN ROUTE
'North-South Expressway (NSE) Northern Route', is the northern part of Malaysia's longest expressway, the North-South Expressway. It is situated on the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia, linking the northern states of Kedah, Penang, Perak and Selangor.
Termini
The NSE Northern Route begins at the Malaysian-Thai Border (the town of Bukit Kayu Hitam in Kedah state) in the north. Its southern terminus is at the Jalan Duta exit in Kuala Lumpur.
Landmarks
Its main landmarks include the Penang Bridge which is Malaysia's longest bridge, Sungai Perak Bridge (Jambatan Sultan Azlan Shah) and the Menora Tunnel.
Current developments
Non-stop straight route (Jelapang-Ipoh Selatan)
Jelapang toll plaza and Ipoh Selatan toll plaza will be demolished in 2007 to make a non-stop route across Ipoh. The decision to demolish both toll plazas were made as a result of accidents which happened at Jelapang toll plaza where most of them involved heavy vehicles. Since the toll plaza was opened in 28 September 1987, there were many accident cases at Jelapang toll plaza which involved heavy vehicles which had brake failures due to hard braking when proceeding downhill to the toll plaza.
Six-lane widening works
Phase 1: Rawang-Tanjung Malim
The 6-lane stretch which is currently running from Kuala Lumpur (including New Klang Valley Expressway {NKVE)) to Rawang Interchange will be expanded to Tanjung Malim .
Phase 2: Tanjung Malim-Slim River
Meanwhile, in the next phase of these works, the 6-lane stretch will be expanded from Tanjung Malim Interchange to Slim River Interchange .
