KUCHING: The proposed underpass at the Datuk Abang Haji Kipali roundabout in Petra Jaya will be completed by February next year.
“The present physical progress is around 80% and a realistic date for completion is in February next year,” a source told The Borneo Post.
The RM67 million project was scheduled to be completed on November 25, 2017 but delayed due to inevitable circumstances.
“The contractor was requesting for a time extension due some SESCO cable relocation issues,” he explained.
The proposed underpass was built on a ‘Design and Build’ contract basis.
A research revealed that an underpass would be more suitable for the area instead of a flyover.
