A little bird told me ..............
Stormwater Management and Road Tunnel- SMART is an engineering feat of a storm water tunnel that can divert flood waters from the Klang River away from the city centre.Do you know that it was orignally meant as a flood relief tunnel only?
Strategically located in one of KL's most busy ring roads, it is also a motorway that eases traffic.
This is the world's 1st storm water tunnel with a built-in motorway capable of turning the highway into a secondary flood channel, with the use of the largest tunnel boring machines in South East Asia.
The coolest thing about this SMART tunnel is how it really works! It monitors the rivers and the gates control the amount of water in the tunnel. During a thunderstorm, the tunnel that you normally dirives through, you will now be seeing millions of gallons of water rushing through !! That's how amazing this SMART is !!
