KUALA LUMPUR: The Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD) together with the Road Transport Department (JPJ) and the police are conducting an integrated road safety operation in conjunction with Hari Raya.

SPAD chief executive officer Mohamed Nur Kamal said the operation was aimed at preventing accidents and ensuring safety at bus terminals.

He said the operation, which began on Sunday, would end on Sept 14.

“This is the first year SPAD is collaborating with enforcement agencies during a festive season after being fully operational on Jan 31,” he said in a statement yesterday.

Mohamed Nur said the operation would be divided into three focus areas of monitoring, with the enforcement agencies concentrating on inspection of permits of public transportation vehicles as well as bus ticket touts.

JPJ’s focus is to inspect the technical aspects of vehicles around depots and bus terminals throughout the peninsula while the police would conduct checks on expressways, federal and state roads.
