[[File:Central Spine Road Raub (U) Exit 9 (240805) 01.jpg|thumb|CSR at Raub Utara]]
'''Central Spine Road''', '''Federal Routes {{JKR|8}} and {{JKR|9}}''' is a new highway under construction in the center of [[Peninsula Malaysia]], [[Malaysia]]. It is a toll-free highway. The 325&nbsp;km (201 miles) highway replaces the former 2-lane {{JKR|8}} [[Gua Musang Highway]] and {{JKR|9}} [[Malaysia Federal Route 9|Karak-Tampin highway]]. The construction first starts on Package 3 which is from Merapoh to Kampung Relong. The reason why it starts there first because the {{JKR|8}} [[Gua Musang Highway]] passes through Chegar Perah which is prone to [[roadkill]]. The highway had a long eco-viaduct built there. The next package that is to be built next will be Package 5 which is from the northern [[Raub]] till Karak which will connect it to the {{MES-E|8}} [[Kuala Lumpur-Karak Highway|Karak Highway]] bypassing [[Bentong]] & [[Mempaga]]. This will also avoid the steep mountainous grade between Raub & Bentong.

'''Lingkaran Tengah Utama Expressway''', previously known as '''Central Spine Road (CSR)''' or '''Kuala Krai–Kuala Pilah Highway''', '''Federal Route 34''', is a new toll-free highway under construction in the center of [[Peninsular Malaysia]]. The 325&nbsp;km (201 miles) highway is built to eventually replace the former two-lane Malaysia Federal Route 8 ([[Gua Musang Highway]]) and Malaysia Federal Route 9 ([[Malaysia Federal Route 9|Karak–Tampin highway]]). Construction of CSR starts at Package 3 which is from Merapoh to Kampung Relong. It commences at Package 3 as the Gua Musang Highway passes through Chegar Perah which is prone to [[roadkill]]. The highway has a long eco-viaduct built in this section. Package 5 which is from north [[Raub, Pahang|Raub]] to Karak will be built next, which will connect it to E8 [[Kuala Lumpur–Karak Expressway]] bypassing [[Bentong]] and [[Mempaga]]. This will help detour traffic from the steep mountainous grade between Raub and Bentong. It was formerly known as {{MES-E|--}} Central Spine Expressway.

A completed section of the CSR near Raub, Pahang.

Lingkaran Tengah Utama Expressway, previously known as Central Spine Road (CSR) or Kuala Krai–Kuala Pilah Highway, Federal Route 34, is a new toll-free highway under construction in the center of Peninsular Malaysia. The 325 km (201 miles) highway is built to eventually replace the former two-lane Malaysia Federal Route 8 (Gua Musang Highway) and Malaysia Federal Route 9 (Karak–Tampin highway). Construction of CSR starts at Package 3 which is from Merapoh to Kampung Relong. It commences at Package 3 as the Gua Musang Highway passes through Chegar Perah which is prone to roadkill. The highway has a long eco-viaduct built in this section. Package 5 which is from north Raub to Karak will be built next, which will connect it to E8 Kuala Lumpur–Karak Expressway bypassing Bentong and Mempaga. This will help detour traffic from the steep mountainous grade between Raub and Bentong. It was formerly known as Central Spine Expressway.

History
