KOTA TINGGI, Sept — The Sungai Johor Bridge remains safe for road users, the Senai-Desaru Expressway Berhad (SDEB) has confirmed. Following a vessel that drifted near the bridge around 2.30 pm yesterday, SDEB swiftly conducted inspections and assessments of the bridge's structural integrity. Technical team assessments found the bridge's structure to be in good condition and deemed it safe for users to cross. The vessel involved in the incident was also moved at 3.16 pm.
SDEB emphasizes its commitment to safety and stated that it will continue to monitor the bridge's condition regularly to ensure highway users' safety. However, users are advised to abide by traffic regulations and heed any safety instructions issued by SDEB from time to time.
