I’ve been using LEKAS( Lebuhraya Kajang-Seremban ) highway in these 2 days to go to Seremban and it is quite fast to reach there. I just need 15 minutes and voila it’s Seremban already. I don’t think many people know about the highway yet as not many vehicles use the route.

This picture taken near the Seremban exit of LEKAS highway. Of course I’m not the one who took the picture. It’s my wife who took it.

This picture taken a few kilometers before Seremban exit.

Guess what?You just have to pay RM1.50 from Nilai to Ampangan. That’s really cheap. Compared to usual highway you have to pay RM3.10 to go to Seremban from Nilai.

My usual route is from Nilai to Senawang and have to pay RM4.10.  Imagine how much I have to pay everyday for to and fro drive from Nilai to Senawang..RM8.20. That’s really waste of money right? Luckily I found this new route and use it…Just have to pay RM3.00 for a return trip.

Is there any other route to Seremban? Free one? Of course there is. There’s an old road to Seremban. You need to go to Nilai Old Town first. Go until you find a junction and there, you will find a sign board shows Seremban. Just take that route and you will reach Seremban with hassle free like the LEKAS highway. It takes about 25 minutes to reach Seremban. With LEKAS highway, you will reach Seremban within 15-20 minutes.

This is the best map I can get to show the way to Seremban. It’s an old road. You need to turn to jalan Labu to go to Seremban.

My workplace is at Kuala Pilah, to be exact Kuala Pilah Hospital. I used to use Nilai-Senawang-Kuala Pilah route. But now its different. My new route is Nilai-Ampangan-Pilah.

It used to take me 1 hour and 10 minutes at fast to reach there. That was when the Bukit Putus road was used as the only route to go to Pilah. Then at the end of last year 2009, the new highway was built and opened, it saves me 15 minutes to reach Pilah. And with this new highway I think it saves me more, maybe 20-25 minutes to reach Pilah. If I’m right I just need 45 minutes to reach Kuala Pilah from Nilai. Need to test the time tomorrow.

I studied the LEKAS map. It seems like the highway begins at Kajang and ends at Paroi only. People says it ends in Kuala Pilah town. I wonder where they get such info.Hehe.

So far, the highway ends at Ampangan only, Paroi exit still under construction.

LEKAS map is as below:
