Motorists who passed by the area also honked to show their support.
BMCRA chairman Ken Lee said the access road would shorten the journey for residents by at least 2km.
“We cannot be expected to use the Bandar Sungai Long road for long as
half the road is out of bounds due to the recent landslide,” he said.
“We were also told that the Malaysian Highway Authority (MHA) has
instructed the highway concessionaire and developer to resolve the
matter, but why should residents be made to suffer if they cannot reach
a consensus?” he asked.
Residents who also participated in the signature campaign urged Grand
Saga not to forget its social responsibility to people in the area.
Bandar Sungai Long Residents Association secretary Jeff Tung said
residents from 11 housing areas were using the main road in Bandar
Sungai Long, but half of the road caved in after a downpour on May 2.
According to Lee, a memorandum on the matter has been presented to
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi through Markiman.
