GEORGE TOWN: IJM Land Berhad (IJM Land), the developer of The Light project, has announced that there will be a temporary lane closure and traffic diversion on Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway.
IJM Land said the closure will affect the Bayan Lepas-bound route from Sept 9 to 11 and the George Town-bound route on Sept 12.
“This closure is necessary to facilitate infrastructure works for road widening on the expressway and the building of an elevated intersection connecting to The Light Waterfront Penang.
“These development improvements are essential for supporting traffic capacity and enhancing road network connectivity,” it said in a statement on Thursday (Sept 5).
To better manage traffic flows during the lane closure, IJM Land will implement a traffic management plan throughout the construction period and make adjustments to mitigate the impact of the planned works.
According to the statement, any temporary lane closures and traffic diversions would be scheduled during off peak hours, specifically from 10pm to 5am, to minimise disruption to road users. – Bernama
