An entire Year Two class at a local school has also been placed under quarantine.
This is after a family of four in Kampung Kuantan tested positive for the virus.
According to Klang Utara police chief Nurulhuda Mohd Salleh, following the restriction, residents who leave and enter the area have to obtain a permission letter from a police mobile post set up at their locality.
She said roadblocks would be set up at Jalan Bukit Kuda in front of the Emy Cookies & Food shop and at the intersection at Lorong Lintang Raksa 2.
Meanwhile, Lorong Perak, Jalan Raksa 3 (in front of Jihas Bakery) and Jalan Raksa 4 will be closed off.
She stressed that no permission letter was required for residents in other areas of Klang Utara to move around as they were not under a conditional MCO.
Meanwhile, the local school - Sekolah Kebangsaan Bukit Kuda - has sent out an alert from the Health Ministry that all pupils of one Year Two class, together with their parents, must be quarantined for 14 days.
This is after one student in the class tested positive for Covid-19.
The student is believed to be from a family of four that all tested positive for the virus.
A village official who spoke to Malaysiakini said the student also attended a local religious school, Sekolah Rendah Agama Kampung Kuantan.
The official said the family has been taken to hospital by the Health Ministry.
