Lebuhraya WISE akan dilaksana selepas peroleh sukuk RM5.55 bilion

Perak's Menteri Besar, Saarani Mohamad, announced that the West Ipoh Span Expressway (WISE) project is now in the final stage of financing after the issuance of RM5.55 billion worth of sukuk. According to him, the recent positive news from WISE management indicates that the project is nearing completion in terms of funding, which will allow the land acquisition work to begin.

WISE is a Private Finance Initiative (PFI) project. They have already secured the funds and have commenced work on acquiring land, which is the information reported to him after the 2026 Government Relations Meeting in Perak. Earlier reports suggested that the 60km long WISE would be equipped with three two-way lanes, starting from Gopeng and passing through Batu Gajah, Siputeh, Manong, Tronoh, Beko, Seri Iskandar, and Kuala Kangsar. The project is expected to serve as an alternative route for users besides the Menora Tunnel.
