I AGREE with Mr Murali Sharma’s letter on Monday, ‘Save vanishing piece of past’, that there is lack of planning in the pursuit of plot ratio increase.
Over the last 10 years, Telok Kurau has seen steady increase in condominium construction, peaking over the last two years. This trend destroys the quiet historical landed housing area and causes heavy traffic of vehicles which the old, narrow streets cannot sustain.
Surely, the expansion and development to house an increasing population can be done in areas where you do not have constraints of existing narrow roads. To worsen the situation, many of the lorongs or streets in Telok Kurau are dead-end streets.
One end is the Telok Kurau Park Connector. Consequently, all traffic exits into Telok Kurau Road with long queues. In the extreme case of a fire, for instance, I worry that safety will be compromised due to this congestion.
Similar problems apply to other areas on the island. It is not too late to review the planning and rethink the change of plot ratios.
