Penang's Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway will see temporary lane closures from October 12 to February 28, 2027, to complete the next stage of an elevated U-turn construction project. IJM Land Berhad, the master developer of THE LIGHT Waterfront Penang, announced that the rightmost median-side lanes on both the George Town-bound and Bayan Lepas-bound carriageways will be affected.
The lane closures and subsequent traffic diversions are essential to create a safe working area for the construction crew. The initial phase of the elevated U-turn was finished in early September, and the completed project is set to enhance road connectivity and traffic flow on the expressway. Motorists are advised to plan their routes, adhere to signage, and drive cautiously near the affected areas.
IJM Land expressed gratitude for the public's patience and understanding during the construction period, noting that further updates will be provided as the project advances.
