PLUS Malaysia Berhad has reopened its food court dining areas at all its rest and service areas (R&Rs), including the two overhead bridge restaurants and lay-bys along PLUS-operated highways as well as the Lebuhraya Pantai Timur 2 (LPT2). This follows the government’s announcement effective February 10, 2021.
While interstate travel is not permitted and inter-district travel is controlled, there are still motorists who will be using the highways to go to work, and they will be able to stop at the R&Rs to get food or drinks.
However, PLUS advises all customers to comply with the Standard Operations Procedure (SOP) which allows 2 persons per dining table with one-metre physical distancing when stopping over to have their meals at the respective areas. The highway concessionaire also advises all highway customers to adhere to the standard safety SOPs of wearing a facemask, registering on the MySejahtera App, checking temperatures at the designated points and keeping a safe distance of one-metre apart when lining up for food or using the facilities at the R&Rs and other public places during this period.
During the Movement Control Order (MCO) period, all facilities at the R&Rs and lay-bys such as public restrooms and suraus are open 24-hours. Meanwhile, restaurants, stalls and mobile food trucks including convenience stores are operating from 6 am to 10 pm.
Additionally, many of the stalls at the R&Rs can accept orders via a pre-order function in the PLUS App. The app can be downloaded for free through the Google Play Store for android devices or the App Store for iPhone users.
