Updating the status of the toll-free roads not tracked...

The one in cyan (on ramp to flyover) is not yet tracked and not listed in the current MFM release.

The ones in red are not yet tracked but are present in current MFM release (and unlikely to deviate much).

Good job Bro wwloon

You got time to take photos some more. I just drove straight up the highway. If you could, please identify the points where the road splits so that our mappers can put in the Y junction prompts . I failed to do that

Bro wwloon,

Please take a picture near the exits/ramps so that we can draw junction view pictures

Bro musangking,

Waypoints are already in my earlier tracklogs for the Ipoh selatan side, where the roads split or merge with the expressway. I haven't tracked the northern portion in full yet so they are not there.

Cheers.

Bro Antyong,

I will pakat with at least another tracker to get the photos... hopefully, over the weekend. Too dangerous to do it alone while driving on the expressway...

Bros,
Here are the tracks. The white track is northbound while the green one is southbound.
Cheers

Hi!
I noticed Bro musangking already submited the track for the KL-Penang Through traffic, bro musangking.
I am still submiting mine, hopefully mine give a clearer picture of the traffic flow, I am also submiting the tracklog for the Local road side by side with the Highway.

This was a join effort tracking with brother gloomis10, thanks to him for taking me to track on his Motorbike
Brother gloomis10 is a very skillful motorbike rider. At one point on the northbound highway, the motorbike tyre puntured (N4 38 38.4 E101 05 14.8), and at that time I remembered we were travelling at 70km/h, the motorbike was wobbling left and right and brother gloomis10 manage to bring the bike to a stop without any incident..
At first I thought he rode like a Mat Rempit (Chinese verion), very scary too. I didnt know his riding skill is beyond the Mat Rempit..
We were lucky at that time, a guy named Meor passed by, and he has all the tools neccessary to change the punctured motorbike tubing for us, so that we can continue to track, thank god
The reason we track on a motorbike this time is that we dont have to go all the way to Kuala Kangsar inorder to track one side of the traffic and come back to track the other side. Once you enter the through traffic, you cannot exit or turn back until you reach Kuala Kangsar. What we did was, after we tracked the northbound traffic, we go to an open area and carry the motorbike to the other side of the traffic and start tracking the opposit direction. Usually Mat Rempit did this to avoid police capture, but we did it for MFM
Thanks to brother gloomis10, This was my first and would be the last time for me to ride a motorbike on the highway... No more excitement like that for me....
