The document introduces Kuala Lumpur's Heavy Vehicle Classification System (HVCS) to address traffic congestion caused by heavy vehicles entering the city center during peak hours. The HVCS uses automated detection systems to identify vehicles over 5 tons entering restricted areas and provides real-time data through a web interface. Analysis of early violation trends showed lower heavy traffic mid-week with higher volumes on Mondays and Fridays.
