Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah Bridge

The Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah Bridge spans the Selangor River using a modern box girder design that accommodates four traffic lanes. The structure connects different regions and handles movement in multiple directions.

Bridge construction began in 1970 as part of Federal Route 5 but faced delays due to initial contractor complications. The official opening occurred in 1979 and marked the completion of an important regional link.

The bridge bears the name of Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah of Selangor, who presided over the opening ceremony. It connects communities on both sides of the river and serves as a key landmark in local infrastructure.

The bridge serves everyday traffic and connects multiple regions together. Visitors should keep in mind it is a heavily used main thoroughfare.

Before this bridge was built, residents relied on a ferry service called Penambang to cross between the banks. That traditional crossing method was eventually replaced by modern infrastructure.
