New road access and temporary closures for The Light Interchange
IJM Land Berhad has announced traffic updates in conjunction with ongoing works at The Light Interchange, part of The Light Waterfront Penang development.
To facilitate the removal of an existing pedestrian bridge, selected George Town-bound lanes along the Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway will be temporarily closed from June 16 to 27, between 10 pm and 5 am. The closures are scheduled during off-peak hours to limit disruption. Motorists are urged to stay alert and follow all posted traffic signs.
In a move to improve connectivity, a new elevated road from Jalan Tunku Kudin (heading towards Bayan Lepas) to The Light Waterfront Penang will officially open on July 1. This new access will allow smoother travel for drivers from the Green Lane area.
Additionally, a new permanent exit from The Light Waterfront Penang (Bayan Lepas-bound) will be opened, while the current temporary exit will be closed for good.
Directional signage has been installed to ensure a smooth transition for all road users.
