Kota Permai intersection is now being upgraded

The intersection of Jalan Kota Permai and Jalan Bukit Minyak is currently under construction to build a roundabout and install traffic lights. It is expected to be completed by mid-May next year, which will bring greater convenience to road users.

Seberang Perai Municipal Councilor Tan Yun Hui pointed out that the Penang state government allocated RM3.5 million for this project.

He mentioned that the project includes widening the bridges, modifying drainage systems, adding road dividers, constructing a roundabout, updating the traffic light system, widening the road surface, and building sidewalks.

“The three-way intersection at the Kota Permai town will soon be transformed into a roundabout, and traffic lights will be installed to ensure safer and more orderly traffic flow.”

These changes aim to make traffic safer and more organized in Kota Permai. The town has experienced significant growth in recent years, with schools and shops, making it a bustling hub for shopping and dining. Its strategic location connecting areas like Bukit Mertajam, Alma, and Jalan Song Ban Kheng has made it a busy transit route for work and school commuters.
