Sarawak Pan-Borneo Highway 'Redline' Road Upgrades Slated for 2028 Completion
The Malaysian Works Ministry has announced that the upgrading of 17.1 km of "redline" road sections along the Pan-Borneo Highway in Sarawak is scheduled for completion by early 2028. These specific sections consist of legacy roadways that existed prior to the development of the modern highway. The project aims to enhance regional connectivity and ensure smoother transitions between new and old infrastructure.
The project focuses on a 17.1 km stretch classified as "redline" roads, which refers to the original road segments that predated the current Pan-Borneo Highway construction. Upgrading these segments is a critical component of the project, intended to integrate the new, high-capacity highway more seamlessly with the existing local road network. By addressing these older stretches, the ministry aims to eliminate potential bottlenecks and improve overall road safety for motorists in the area.
With an expected completion timeline set for early 2028, these works represent a significant milestone in Sarawak’s ongoing infrastructure modernization. Once finished, the upgraded "redline" sections will contribute to a more cohesive and efficient transport corridor across the state. This development is expected to provide long-term benefits for both local commuters and the broader logistics sector by facilitating safer and faster travel.
