BBRAeNEWS No.335 - Cassia Rubbish Dump

Dear Residents Of Cassia and Other Precincts,
Bandar Botanic.

The Rubbish Dump at Jalan Cassia Utama.
-Andrew Sum


The road of Jalan Cassia Utama is slowly becoming a Rubbish Dump of Bandar Botanic and is becoming a laughing stock to visitors and outsiders. Are those in the TownShip Management and Local Town Council aware of this?

Recently a resident of Cassia wrote to me this:
Dear Andrew,

Jalan Cassia Utama is a one way street for vehicle to drive out to Persiaran Botanic. Hardly any vehicle uses the road because of its longer distance to get on to Jalan Langat. The road now has become a very deserted area and its an opportunity for people to abuse the surroundings of the road.

Issue 1Rubbish is thrown along side the road.

Issue 2Leaves clog up drainage outlets causing floods during rains

Issue 3Bus park along side the road blocking off half our the road

Issue 4Accident car park along side the road.

There will be more issues to come if nothing is to be done.

I suggest the following :

1. Open the road to two way traffic with sufficient humps to prevent speeding. If frequent car passes this road than it will deter such problems in the future.

2. As for the buses, they could park at the parking lots near the ‘99 Speedmart’ area but with proper signage mentioning the time allowable to park.

3. Get KKS(Kawalan Keselamatan Sentral) to check the owner of the accident car and immediately removed it

4. Get MPK to more frequently trim the grasses and sweep the leaves along this road.

All residents should be responsible of their own actions and stop treating Bandar Botanic like any other Taman.

Regards,

Ong
