Hello guys! It’s us again! While today’s news has nothing to do with food, we reckon you guys would still wanna know about this. The long-awaited Saloma Link Bridge is now open to the public! If you’re nearby that area, you already know that this bridge is under works and today, it’s officially open! So, say yay to more convenience getting around KL!
Pedestrian Link Bridge Connects Old & New Worlds Of KL
If you open your social media, everyone is abuzz right now with the brand new pedestrian bridge. The Saloma Link Bridge connects Kampung Baru and Jalan Ampang so now there’s seamless pedestrian connectivity between both the old and new worlds of KL.
According to TheStar, the link bridge is a project by the Kampung Bharu Development Corporation (PKB) and it has undergone countless challenges for it to be officially open. This is due to the bridge having to cross an expressway whereby it has to be kept open. Really, this bridge is no easy task so guys, we need to be proud of it okay?
Now onto the fun facts and pictures of Saloma Link! (because that’s what everyone is looking forward to). Ready? The Saloma Link stretches 370meters and the entire project costs approximately RM31 Million. It took 18 months for the pedestrian link to be ready.
It usually takes around 30 minutes journey from Kampung Baru to KLCC and with this pedestrian link bridge, traveling time will be reduced to more than half to 7 minutes. Searching #salomalink on Instagram, you’ll be greeted by brightly-lit pictures of the new bridge. That’s because it’s being lit up with 4100 LED Lights.
Saloma Link Is Now Open To The Public
Saloma Link isn’t just convenient, it’s also got Insta-worthy written all over it. Once again, this is definitely yet another iconic landmark that would map KL in the international arena. What do you guys think?
