Cars along Jalan Tun Razak and Jalan Sultan Ismail and surrounding areas were bumper to bumper.
The Bandar Tun Razak tunnel was earlier closed to traffic after it was flooded but is now open to traffic.
A Fire and Rescue Department official said that they received reports that Kampung Sungai Penchala experienced floods but water has since receded.
