Slow moving traffic seems to start from the main roads such as Jalan Puchong and KESAS around 3.45pm. The traffic gradually picks up pace at 5.30pm and becomes pretty congested within minutes, especially on ELITE. This lasts for about two hours with remotely heavy traffic flow within the USJ 6, 9 and 10 areas as there are many commercial lots with eateries in those neighbourhood. Traffic eases out by 7.15pm but remains heavy near Seksyen 21 and USJ 12.

Traffic flow changes quickly within minutes and peaks around 5.15pm. NKVE, SPRINT and LDP are predictably clogged up. This continues on until 7pm, when only the main highways like LDP still show signs of heavy traffic before clearing off around 8pm.
