Sejingkat Bridge is now 94% complete and could open earlier than planned this October.
The 1.2km bridge is being positioned as a major new link for Kuching and Sarawak's Second Trunk Road network.
Sarawak Deputy Minister for Infrastructure and Port Development Datuk Aidel Lariwoo said the project is about one per cent ahead of schedule. The original completion date was October 22, but the remaining works are now mainly focused on road approaches at Sejingkat and Tanjung Bako.
Why it matters
Once completed, the bridge is expected to handle about 15,000 vehicles a day. It will connect Sejingkat, Kuching to the wider Second Trunk Road network, giving travellers from coastal and interior areas a stronger route into Kuching.
The project is also tied to future plans around Tanjung Embang, including the proposed new Kuching airport and deep-sea port.
Location: Sejingkat, Kuching / Tanjung Bako
Details: 1.2km bridge, 94% complete, early October 2026 target, estimated 15,000 vehicles daily
