It’s been 2 years since I drove on this road. The last time was on my daily commute. Things have not changed since. The dual carriageway abruptly stopped somewhere before Telisai and the next 17 km is like a drive along a back lane. This should have been the backbone of Brunei linking the two ends of the country. It is even more important now that as major industries are being built in Sg Liang that road user will increase.Today on Sunday, the volume of traffic is still quite high. There was even an accident, something that is hardly avoidable along this road. Inevitable the accident caused a traffic jam.
It wasn’t so bad today. The daily commuters told me that during work day, the traffic already comes to a halt before 7 am somewhere after Telisai. Those who work in KB have to leave home at 6 am if they want to avoid the traffic congestion. The situation gets worse when there is an accident, which is quite common. If the accident happened on the way home in the late afternoon, some only reached their home at 7 or 8 pm at night.
