Toll-free Durin bridge will be opened to motorists on Oct 21


SIBU: The southern and northern regions of Sarawak, divided by the Rejang river, will be “bridged” by Oct 21 – in time for the festive balik kampung rush. 

The good news is that the authorities will not impose any toll on the new 1.2km Durin bridge – which for years had been the missing link in the 1,000km Pan-Borneo Highway.
