Brickfields stakeholders want bridge removed


DBKL has been urged to remove the lift shafts of this pedestrian bridge located along the Jalan Tun Sambanthan main road. — CHAN TAK KONG/The Star

BARELY two months after an underutilised pedestrian bridge in front of Malaysian Association for the Blind (MAB) in Brickfields was demolished, Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) received a request to take down another pedestrian bridge in the neighbourhood.

The bridge in question — located along Jalan Tun Sambanthan — has not only reportedly become a white elephant, stakeholders claim the lift shaft has not been certified by the Occupational Safety and Health Department (DOSH).
