Construction work for a new US$676 million elevated, tolled highway project in Malaysia is expected to start in 2025. Building the Juru-Sungai Dua Elevated Highway project should take until 2029 to complete. The work will help improve transport in Penang and is one of a series of infrastructure improvements planned for the area.

The 15km route will help reduce congestion on the North-South Highway, boosting transport for Penang, cutting journey times and helping economic development for the area.
