-
Two drainage upgrade projects worth over RM800,000 are now underway in Batu Kawa to reduce flash flood problems.

The works cover RPR Batu Kawa Lorong 6 and Jalan Field Force, with completion targeted for August and October 2026 respectively.
According to DayakDaily, the RPR Batu Kawa project will upgrade front and rear drains in phases. Roads along the affected lanes will be resurfaced after the drainage work is completed.
Why residents should care
Deputy Premier and Batu Kawa assemblyman Datuk Amar Dr Sim Kui Hian said the upgrades are needed because rapid development, heavier rainfall and older drainage systems have made flash flood issues harder to manage.
He also warned contractors to keep to schedule, saying action including blacklisting can be taken if obligations are not met.
