TuJu on the East Coast highways
KL-Karak and the two phases of the East Coast Expressway are a different drive from the North-South. The concessionaires and the phone numbers change. TuJu is still a planning tool, not a guarantee that every ramp is drawn.
Three roads, two operators
Leaving the Klang Valley for the east coast is not one highway. LLM's directory splits it into three.
- Kuala Lumpur-Karak Expressway, 60 km, opened 30 September 1999, concessionaire ANIH Berhad, hotline 1-700-818-700.
- East Coast Expressway phase 1 (LPT1), 174 km, opened 1 August 2004, also ANIH, same hotline 1-700-818-700.
- East Coast Expressway phase 2 (LPT2), 184 km, opened 22 November 2011, concessionaire Lebuhraya Pantai Timur 2, hotline 1-800-88-0220.
TuJu does not replace those operators. It is a phone layer on top of whatever feed LLM and the concessionaire are publishing. If your route crosses from ANIH's roads onto LPT2, the patrol you need changes with the kilometre marker. The hotline list keeps the numbers. This page is about how to drive them with the app.
Before you leave
Karak and the east coast are long enough that the planning tools matter more than a perfect city prompt. Set the destination at home. Read the ETA and the toll figure. Check one camera on the climb or the stretch you worry about, if TuJu has a camera there. Pick a rest stop and a fuel plan before you join, including an EV charger if you are on Android 2.0 and the directory shows one. Confirm the pin when you arrive. Directories lag behind renovations.
Weather and slopes are not an app feature. The Karak climb, rain, and a loaded car at a festive weekend are ordinary reasons to leave earlier and to stop before you are tired. TuJu will not add skill on a wet descending ramp. It can help you see that the road ahead is already slow, if the feed is up.
Do not assume East Malaysia. The product site talks about Peninsular highways. Sabah and Sarawak are a different question, and this east-coast page is still about the peninsula.
On the way
Listen for the prompt and watch the gantry. The October 2026 test's weak instructions were described around Kuala Lumpur, not specifically on LPT2, but there is no public evidence that the voice suddenly becomes precise once you pass Karak. Treat "keep straight" at a fork as incomplete. Follow the exit name on the sign.
Toll announcements, where your build has them, are a reason to check the wallet before the plaza, not a receipt. In-app toll payment was only a hope as of 22 October 2026, with no date. You still pay at the booth. The ways plazas actually charge are on the payment page.
If the map draws a straight line that ignores the road, you are looking at the bug other drivers posted during the surge. Do not follow it off the carriageway. Stay on the signed highway and rebuild the route at the next rest area.
Who to call
Injuries: 999 first, from a place out of the running lane if you can get there safely. Then the concessionaire. On KL-Karak and LPT1 the directory lists 1-700-818-700. On LPT2 it lists 1-800-88-0220. TuJu's SOS button is meant to reach the concessionaire for the highway you are on, which is better than guessing if the app is actually open. If the app is frozen, use the dialler.
LLM's own traffic line, 1-800-88-7752, is for highway information. It is not a substitute for an ambulance. A pothole you have already passed goes to MyJalan when you are parked. A car in a live lane does not.
