A flyover at KM P2.4 near the Selangor Science Park 2 Interchange between the Putrajaya Toll Plaza and Putrajaya/Cyberjaya, on Lingkaran Putrajaya stretch collapsed at about 12.49 p.m. Thursday, February 28, 2013.

Nobody was hurt in the incident because the flyover was closed to traffic after the Malaysia Highway Authority (MHA) discovered some movement to one of the pillars holding the flyover in early December 2012.

NSTP wrote that a spokesman of the Selangor State Development Corporation (PKNS) said the flyover was part of the road link to Putrajaya and came under the supervision of PKNS.

The Star reported that PKNS general manager Othman Omar said construction of the flyover commenced in 2007 and it was completed in 2009, after which it was handed over to PLUS and the Malaysia Highway Authority (MHA) in March last year.

Othman Omar also said the project was financed by four developers (PKNS, Unduh Aspirasi, Taraf Unggul and Semai Ria) and coordinated by the State Economic Planning Unit (UPEN).

Following the collapse, PKNS will set up a technical committee to identify the root cause of the incident.

Users from the Elite Highway heading towards Putrajaya or Cyberjaya are advised to exit the highway via the Saujana Putra Interchange before entering the SKVE highway to Putrajaya/Cyberjaya.
