    CONSTRUCTION Sector report Toll hikes: NPV neutral impact 15 Oct 2015 OVERWEIGHT Mak Hoy Ken (Maintained) [email protected] 03-2036 2294 Rationale for report: Sector update Investment Highlights Higher toll rates from 15 October. The local press reported that toll charges for 18 highways in Malaysia will be raised between RM0.10 and RM3 effective from today. Out of this total, 12 are major highway concessions operating within the Klang Valley: Kuala Lumpur-Karak (KLK) Expressway, Maju Expressway (MEX), Kajang Dispersal Link Expressway (SILK), Duta-Ulu Kelang Expressway (DUKE), Stormwater Management and Road Tunnel (SMART), KL-Kuala Selangor Expressway (LATAR), Sungai Besi Highway (BESRAYA), New Pantai Expressway (NPE), Kajang Seremban Highway (LEKAS), Damansara Puchong Highway (LDP), Western Kuala Lumpur Traffic Dispersal Scheme (SPRINT) and Cheras- Kajang Highway (Grand Saga). Other highways that follow suit include the South Klang Valley Expressway (SKVE), Guthrie Corridor Expressway (GCE), Kemuning Shah Alam Highway (LKSA), Ampang Kuala Lumpur Elevated Highway (AKLEH), Senai Desaru Expressway (SDE) and Butterworth Outer Ring Road (LLB). Status quo for PLUS-owned highways. Altogether, toll rates for all eight highways under government-backed PLUS Expressway Bhd remained unchanged at this juncture. They are the North South Expressway (NSE), New Klang Valley Expressway (NKVE), Federal Highway Route 2, Seremban Port Dickson Highway, North South Expressway Central Link (ELITE), Second Link Malaysia Singapore (Linkedua), Butterworth Kulim Expressway (BKE) and Penang Bridge. Part of fiscal consolidation moves. We believe this is part of Malaysian government’s move to meet its budget deficit target of 3.2% for 2015 (2014: 3.5%) and support its sovereign rating amid a challenging global economic backdrop.

Ismail Md. Salleh Deputy Director General (Planning and Development) Malaysian Highway Authority Km. 16, Jalan Serdang – Kajang 43000 Kajang, Selangor, Malaysia En. Khair Ul-Anwar Mohd Yusoff General Manager Rangkaian Segar Sdn Bhd 9th Floor, Menara 1, Faber Towers Jalan Desa Bahagia, Taman Desa Off Jalan Klang Lama 58100 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Pn. Zaida Bt. Abdul Aziz Assistant Director Malaysian Highway Authority Km. 16, Jalan Serdang – Kajang 43000 Kajang, Selangor, Malaysia ABSTRACT The first ETC system was implemented along 22km expressways in 1995 and as of today, the whole stretch of 1,459 km expressways are equipped with a single ETC system allowing for full interoperable. A Service Provider providing electronic payment service operates the system, not just for toll payment but also for payment of parking, public transportation fares. The journey towards achieving ‘single and interoperable ETC’ is started in 1994 and by July 2004, the system were implemented nationwide. During the earlier stage of ETC Development in Malaysia, various system and technology were introduced. The toll highway operators were actively involved in ETC development in Malaysia as they realized the needs to reduce cost of toll collection, capital investment savings, fraud elimination, faster journey time, increased fuel, less congestion and reduce pollution. The first ETC Technology implemented is 2.45GHz microwave in 1994 and another highway operator introduced the same technology in 1997. The system was further enhanced in 2001 to meet the international standard of 5.8GHz.

Under the so called Perak Amanjaya Development Plan, some of the things that we have tried to do are the same things that I believe many others here are concerned about: first, balanced development and economic distribution between the urban and rural areas by focusing on developing small towns; second, poverty eradication regardless of race or religion so that no one remains on the fringes of society or is left behind economically; and, third, youth empowerment. Under the first one, the state identifies viable small- and medium-size companies which can operate from small towns. These companies are to be working closely with the state government to boost the economy of the respective areas.

  • Integrated Management of Malaysian Road Network Operations Through ITS Initiatives: Issues, Potentials and Challenges
    Integrated management of Malaysian road network operations through ITS Initiatives: issues, potentials and challenges Moazzem Hossain Malaysia University of Science and Technology (MUST) GL33, Kelana Square, Kelana Jaya, PJ 47301, Selangor, Malaysia [email protected] Abstract During the last twenty five years, rapid urbanization and industrialization have resulted considerable growth of Malaysian highway network. Apart from few specialized industrial zones, most of the industrial zones are established in close proximity of the urban areas in order to ensure the smooth supply of manpower especially for the dominating manufacturing sectors. This phenomenon resulted in a number of large regional units of transport demand base involving high private motorized trips and truck dependent freight trips. The growth of car and truck trips especially in the regions including sea ports is putting tremendous pressure on the capacity of these regions’s road network which cannot be subdued by only physical extension of the network which often proved to be costly also. As a result, a number of such regions e.g. Klang Valley, Penang and Johor Baru are experiencing the problems of congestion, accidents and air pollution on their highway network. In many developed countries integrated intelligent transport system (ITS) initiatives applied to these sorts of regional bases have been claimed to be successful in alleviating those problems in a cost-effective manner. This paper will investigate the issues related to such integrated application of ITS initiatives in Malaysia on a regional basis with particular focus on Klang Valley region. Starting from the basic ITS functionality, the paper will identify the potential focus areas such as data gathering, data communication among and across jurisdictions, System flexibility, smart use of alternative routes, public-private collaboration and integration of public-private agencies in terms of regional ITS operational needs.
