Traffic Diversions for ASEAN Summit to Begin from 23 October

Traffic diversions will begin in stages from 23 October to ensure the smooth running of the 47th ASEAN Summit and Related Summits, which will take place at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC) from October 26 to 28, 2025.

The Director of the Royal Malaysia Police’s (PDRM) Traffic Investigation and Enforcement Department (JSPT), Datuk Seri Mohd Yusri Hassan Basri, said that the initial traffic management planning so far involves motorcycle convoy rehearsal activities.

He said this will be carried out from the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) to hotels around Kuala Lumpur and to KLCC on October 23 and 24.

“Temporary traffic diversions will be implemented along the highways and main roads connecting KLIA to the capital city and the areas around KLCC.

“Meanwhile, the full deployment of JSPT personnel will begin from October 25 to 28 (the duration of the conferences) with the implementation of staged road diversions. This will involve the area within approximately one kilometer (km) of KLCC,” he said in a statement today.

He said that road diversions and traffic dispersal are necessary to ensure the smooth movement of delegates and the safety of all parties throughout the event.

He said that further information regarding the affected routes, specific diversion plans, and the full diversion schedule will be announced in the near future.

“The public is requested to give their full cooperation to the authorities and to support the government’s efforts in making this summit a success, thereby enhancing the nation’s prestige on the international stage,” he said.

Wahid's lust for motorcycles was spurred on by his late-Dad's love for his Lambretta on which he courted, married his mother, and took baby Wahid riding on it. He has since worked in the motorcycle and automotive industry for many years, before taking up riding courses and testing many, many motorcycles since becoming a motojournalist. Wahid likes to see things differently. What can you say about a guy who sees a road safety message in AC/DC's "Highway to Hell."
