Three speed limits on bridge


BUTTERWORTH: Following the expansion of the Penang Bridge to three lanes, motorists might have expected the speed limit of 80kph to be either increased or at best retained. Instead there are now different speed limits imposed on the bridge with the lowest at 50kmph.

A check showed that the speed limit when approaching a left slip road and the toll plaza in Prai has been set at 50kmph while that between the first and 5th kilometre has been retained at 80kmph.
