Located south of the existing Penang Bridge, the project connects Batu Maung (Penang Island) and Batu Kawan (Seberang Perai), spanning approximately 24.5 kilometers. Its main cross-sea section is a twin-tower, three-span cable-stayed bridge. Opened to traffic in March 2014, the bridge slashed the travel time between the two locations by nearly 70%. Serving as another model infrastructure project under China-Malaysia cooperation, this bridge and the East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) are widely recognized for their monumental engineering impacts.
