Lane closures on Penang coastal highway for new U-turn
The rightmost lanes of the coastal highway will be closed from Oct 12 to Feb 28 for the completion of an elevated U-turn.
A section of the rightmost lanes on the Jelutong coastal highway near the Light Waterfront will be shut down from October 12 to February 28 for the installation of an elevated U-turn. This modification is being made to enhance the connectivity and flow of traffic along the coastal highway. The closure will impact the median-side rightmost lanes of both the George Town-bound and Bayan Lepas-bound carriageways of the Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway.
The developer, IJM Land Bhd, announced that the initial phase of the construction for the elevated U-turn was finished last month. The elevated U-turn is part of the ongoing Air Itam bypass project, which is an elevated four-lane dual carriageway linking Air Itam to the coastal highway, thereby circumventing the inner city.
