The Bayan Baru Red Bridge is a steel arch bridge over the monsoon drain (or storm canal) in Bayan Baru. It links Lebuh Kampung Jawa to Lebuhraya Sungai Nibong in front of Crystal Point. It was opened to the traffic in the middle of 2008, although the scheduled opening date was 15 May, 2008.
The Red Bridge, as it is popularly called, provides an alternative route for workers of the Bayan Lepas Free Industrial Zone Phase 3 to leave the zone and to reduce the traffic build up on the junctions of Jalan Kampung Jawa. For many people living in Sungai Dua, Bukit Jambul, Taman Sri Nibong, the Red Bridge enables them to cut down their driving time.
Getting to Bayan Baru Red Bridge
Bayan Baru Red Bridge is located on the left side of Lebuhraya Sungai Nibong after you exit the Bayan Baru Interchange of the Bayan Lepas Expressway.
