KUCHING: The relevant authorities such as Public Works Department are urged to upgrade the safety railings at the Kota Sentosa area for the safety of all road users.

PKR national women vice-president, Voon Shiak Ni, said the upgrading works were necessary, especially the safety railings opposite a coffee shop in the area.

The present railing did not provide sufficient safety measures to the road users. Voon, who is also PKR Stampin branch vice-chairperson, said the concern of the road users was understandable considering that the safety railings were only two feet high.

She also said the sharp corner ascending the slope should be improved to provide better safety to the road users.

Besides Kota Sentosa, she also said the road railings at Mile 8 and 9 Jalan Penrissen were easily damaged and run down by vehicles.

“Do something to strengthen them,” she said.
