Sejingkat Bridge Could Open To Traffic By Oct 1, Easing Kuching Congestion.
The RM365.74 million bridge across the Sarawak River could open to traffic as early as Oct 1, after Deputy Premier and Minister for Infrastructure and Port Development Datuk Amar Douglas Uggah Embas inspected the final stitching works on Aug 17.
The 1,281.2-metre dual-carriageway bridge will give motorists from Serian and Kota Samarahan a more direct route towards Demak Laut, Petra Jaya and nearby industrial areas, without passing through Kuching city centre. That is expected to ease congestion in the city.
The contractor reported no major manpower or funding problems. The project’s scheduled completion date remains Oct 22, 2026.
