Seeking support for mega project

Saturday, 11 February 2012 05:48

Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng has reached out to the people to support his proposed 6.5km undersea third link tunnel linking Bagan Ajam in Butterworth with Gurney Drive on the island.

He said residents in Seberang Prai and George Town would be able to reap benefits from the proposed mega infrastructure project mooted by the state government.

“The people in Seberang Prai should support the undersea project as it will bring development to their neighbourhood,” he said when attending a Chinese New Year open house celebration, hosted by Deputy Chief Minister II Dr P. Ramasamy at the Chai Leng Park multi-purpose hall in Prai.

On Nov 15, Lim unveiled a proposal to build three bypass highways and an undersea tunnel costing around RM8bil.

He had said that the bypass highways would connect Gurney Drive to the Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway, Bandar Baru Air Itam as well as the existing coastal road between Tanjung Bungah and Teluk Bahang via a paired road.

He had also said that the project cost incurred would be recovered via “competitive land swap deals” with prospective companies that would be appointed via open tender.

Lim said Penang’s RM35bil investments in the state over the last four years had brought about development to the state, including in Seberang Prai, where many multinational companies were located.
