PETALING JAYA: A landslide is blocking all lanes in both directions on the Karak Highway.
"It's at KM52.2 at Bukit Tinggi. It's the really watery kind of mud. So all lanes in all directions are currently being obstructed," said head of traffic from the STAR Radio Media Group Priscilla Patrick.
For now, traffic heading towards Kuala Lumpur is stuck in a 3km standstill, with a 1km crawl heading towards Bentong.
"I just spoke to officials - there are some cars that are buried in this landslide, so it's not looking good. It's not going to clear up till midnight, I think it's going to go on till morning," she added.
As an alternative, road users can exit off at Bukit Tinggi or Bentong, or use trunk roads to bypass the congestion.
