KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 26 — The Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) is actively conducting clean-up operations following the failure of a retaining structure that triggered a landslide in Taman United, Seputeh, on Monday (November 24).
It said the work involves clearing small stones and large boulders to ensure the area is safe.
“Once the clean-up work is complete, slope repair work will commence and is expected to take three to four days, depending on weather conditions,” DBKL said in a statement today.
Geotechnical consultants will also conduct a soil investigation and prepare a geotechnical report to assess the slope's safety.
It added that affected residents will only be allowed to return to their homes after the report confirms that the slope is safe for occupation.
On Monday, the Fire and Rescue Department (JBPM) received an emergency call regarding a landslide. As a result, residents of two apartment blocks comprising 104 housing units were ordered to vacate their homes following ground movement at the incident location.
