GEORGE TOWN, October 4 – IJM Land Berhad (“IJM Land”), the developer behind THE LIGHT development, announces a planned lane closure and traffic diversion on the fast lanes of both the George Town-bound and Bayan Lepas-bound routes. This traffic adjustment is scheduled to be in effect from October 15, 2023, to March 31, 2024, and is necessary to facilitate construction activities related to the Tun Dr. Lim Chong Eu Expressway median, specifically for THE LIGHT Interchange.

The construction work encompasses several key components, including the creation of new elevated ramps connecting to THE LIGHT Waterfront Penang and an extensive widening of the Tun Dr. Lim Chong Eu Expressway. These improvements are designed to enhance the existing infrastructure, ultimately benefiting the general public by providing a more robust transportation network. In an effort to minimize disruptions during this construction period, IJM Land has devised a comprehensive traffic management plan.

The company is dedicated to ensuring the safety and convenience of road users in the vicinity of the construction area. However, it is essential for all drivers to exercise caution when approaching and navigating through the affected zones. IJM Land acknowledges the potential inconvenience this may cause to the public and expresses its apologies in advance. The developer remains committed to delivering high-quality infrastructure that will contribute to the overall development of the region.
