KOTA KINABALU: More than half of Sabah’s roads have exceeded their design lifespan, making routine patching no longer effective in keeping them safe and functional, says state Works Minister Datuk Shahelmey Yahya (pic).
Shahelmey, who is also Deputy Chief Minister III, told the state assembly on Monday (April 14) that the government has started upgrading critical stretches, but acknowledged that many more roads across Sabah need complete rehabilitation, not just minor repairs.
