KL ‘selamat’ kerana terowong SMART lencongkan 5 juta meter padu air banjir

Terowong lebuhraya Syarikat Mengurus Air Banjir dan Terowong Sdn Bhd (SMART) telah berjaya melencongkan 5 juta meter padu air hujan setelah diaktivasikan selama kira-kira 22 jam bagi melencongkan air hujan pada Sabtu.

Ketua Setiausaha Kementerian Alam Sekitar dan Air Datuk Seri Dr Zaini Ujang berkata ini merupakan rekod terbaru dalam kawalan pelencongan Terowong SMART. Sejak tahun 2007, sebanyak lapan pelencongan air dibuat dan dalam setiap operasi, hanya kira-kira 3 jam operasi direkodkan.

Katanya, bagi pelencongan air ke-9 kali ini yang bermula dari Sabtu hingga tengahari Ahad, operasi berjalan selama 22 jam disebabkan oleh hujan terlampau lebat di Kuala Lumpur, Putrajaya, dan Selangor. Terowong itu mula ditutup kepada lalu lintas bagi aktivasi sistem banjir pada petang Sabtu.

Menurut kenyataan oleh SMART, 5 juta meter padu air telah berjaya dilencongkan dari Sungai Klang dan Sungai Ampang ke Takungan Taman Desa.

Berdasarkan anggaran dibuat oleh Jabatan Pengairan dan Saliran (JPS), kawasan tumpuan utama di Kuala Lumpur seperti di Masjid Jamek dan sekitarnya akan mengalami banjir jauh lebih teruk jika 5 juta meter padu air tidak dilencongkan.

Rumah pam milik JPS di sekitar Kuala Lumpur juga beroperasi pada kapasiti maksima sejak Sabtu, meringankan lagi risiko bencana di sekitar ibu kota.

Terowong SMART dengan kepanjangan 9.7 km mula beroperasi pada 2007 dan pembinaannya menelan kos lebih RM 1 bilion. Ia merupakan terowong lencongan air yang terpanjang di Asia Tenggara dan kedua terpanjang di Asia.

The upcoming mini Toyota Land Cruiser will be a Corolla Cross-sized "Land Hopper?"

The Toyota Land Cruiser made its name being a tough-as-nails, go-anywhere premium 4x4 with the looks to back it up. Hot on the heels of the new global Land Cruiser 300 and the North American Land Cruiser 250 (Prado) could be a new third, more compact variant that’s being adorably dubbed the Land Hopper. Japanese site Best Car Web has dropped its own rendering of what the Land Hopper could be styled like and unsurprisingly, it appears to be very much like a mini Land Cruiser 250. That’s not a bad
