DESIGN BRIEF

1.0 PROJECT BRIEF

Majlis Perbandaran Sepang (hereinafter referred to as “MP Sepang or Client”) through Jabatan
Kejuruteraan as the project implementer has intended to upgrade the existing intersections located
along Jalan Teknokrat 3 in Cyberjaya (GPS Decimal Degree Coordinates: 2.926350, 101.655068).

Jalan Teknokrat 3 currently provide access to giant corporations like Shell, IBM, HSBC, Glomac
commercial lots and 2 private colleges. There are currently 3 intersections along Jalan Teknokrat 3
namely the T-junctions to Jalan Teknokrat 3 Timur and Jalan Teknokrat 3 Barat and a 4-legged
junction at the center of Jalan Teknokrat 3.

2.0 DESIGN CONSIDERATION

1. Un-signalized 4-Legged Junction

The main issues brought up by the Client in regards with the project was the predominant
accident rates at the 4-leg intersection which is uncontrolled by any sort of traffic devices.
Side – swipe and right-angle collisions have been reported to happen at this particular junction
thus shall be considered for treatment in the design improvement phase. The authority has
banned any U-Turn movement at this junction but it still happens due to lack of nearby U-Turn.

DESIGN BRIEF

5.0 DESIGN PROPOSAL

Several proposals were submitted as per standard practice and the Client has decided to adopt
the initial design from the project mentioned in clause 2.0.2 of this document. The Consultant
was requested to perform design review and propose improvement whenever necessary. The
treatment summary is as follows:

i. The main carriageway of each bound shall consists of 2 lanes of 3.5 m width with single
auxiliary lane for U-Turn sections. Jalan Teknokrat 3 Barat and Timur shall be utilized
as the mainline of each bound respectively.

ii. Existing physical median of Jalan Teknokrat 3 which is not within the traffic circulation
scheme shall be maintained. Paved shoulders of 2.0 m as recommended by auditors
(refer Section 7.9.1 (iii) of RSA Stage 3 Report page 35 in the Appendix section) were
deemed not feasible due to constraints stated in section 3.1.3 of this document,
however certain road stretches are currently equipped with 1.5 m paved shoulders and
they shall be maintained as much as possible depending on availability of space and
other site constraints. 0.5 m marginal strip shall be provided in case of space
constraints.

iii. All intersections shall be eliminated by channelizing the traffic to a one-way road
system in order to minimize the traffic conflicts.

iv. Proper channelization of access to major buildings shall be performed by provision of

chevron markings or ghost islands.

v. 2 U-Turns of single 5.0 m width lane with 0.5 m marginal strip shall be provided as per
auditor’s recommendation (refer Appendix H13a and H13b of RSA Stage 3 Report page
85 in the Appendix section) to accommodate the need of people at the area to shuttle
during working days especially at lunch hours. Single U-Turn lane is adopted to avoid
road lane imbalance and create safe merging maneuvers as commented by auditors
(refer appendix H2 of RSA Stage 3 Report page 72 in the Appendix section).

vi. The sharp curves in previous design (refer Appendix H11 of RSA Stage 3 Report page
81 in the Appendix section) have been treated with curves of wider diameter in
compliance with 40 km/h design speed requirement. Lane widening from 3.5 m to 4.25
m has also been performed at corners commented by the auditors (refer Appendix
H12a, H12b and H12c of RSA Stage 3 Report page 82 - 84 in the Appendix section).

vii. Existing pedestrian facilities such as zebra crossing and 1 push stop button shall be
maintained. Additional zebra crossings and walkway shall be proposed to facilitate
pedestrian movement from one side of the road to the other. All demolished walkway
if any shall be reinstated and connected to the existing for continuity.

viii. Due to constraints stated in section 3.1.3 of this document, the existing bus stand shall
be maintained and the layby shall be designed or reconfigured based on existing

Client. New street lights if required shall be proposed which fit the existing lighting
layout while still in compliance with approved guidelines.
