MBPJ: Limited gates open at Old Town market for crowd control


For many months, this gate facing Jalan Othman 4/40 served as the only entry/exit to the market, forcing customers to take a longer route and delivery trucks to wait longer.

“MBPJ assessed the market before deciding what time and which gates should be opened, ” said an MBPJ spokesperson.
