Penang Bridge lane closure – 11am-1pm today, 2 ways

PLUS has announced the closure of the left lanes on the Penang Bridge for maintenance works. The closure is happening today, May 31, from 11am to 1pm.

Specifically, the leftmost lanes of the first bridge will be closed to traffic from KM4 island to mainland, and from KM8 from Perai to the island.

The highway operator advises motorists to follow the instructions of the crew and drive safe when in the area. Always keep a good distance from the vehicle in front and follow the speed limits. Plan your journey, because the bridge run might take longer than usual today.

    Seriously, why is this not planned at midnight to avoid congestion?

      • Penang bridge is maintained by PLUS Expressways, so all credit and criticism goes to that company.

    • You have to ask Transport Minister why they axed ferries for 4 wheelies for not knowing bridge closure.

  • Because it’s dangerous to work on the bridge at night where light is scarce and accident is prone. Just two hours. Deal with it. The world doesn’t revolve around you…

    I have a very unfavourable but probably working suggestion

    Make the bridge one way traffic.
    Means old bridge island- mainland
    New bridge mainland to island
