| Abstrait: |
The rapid socioeconomic development in the Klang Valley has resulted in a surge of freight and passenger transport movements and an increase in demand for better quality of roads, road networks, and transport systems. Hence, the construction of the Damansara-Shah Alam Elevated Highway (DASH) project was proposed to ease traffic congestion, by efficiently dispersing the traffic coming from the surrounding townships, and by providing connectivity between the Puncak Alam catchment and the Damansara North area. The case study, namely the DASH project, will be a 16.3 km expressway traversing from Puncak Perdana in the west to Damansara Perdana in the east. The DASH project has been chosen to illustrate the various processes and challenges involved in its planning and design and in the fulfillment of its pre-construction requirements. Currently, this project is at its early stage of construction and is scheduled to be completed by August 2020. |
