Bunting Island Bridge, Tied-arch bridge in Yan, Malaysia

The Bunting Island Bridge stretches 2.3 kilometers across the Selat Kepala Rambut channel, featuring an 80-meter arch cable-stayed section and two causeways.

The Malaysian Public Works Department and Gamuda Berhad constructed this RM120 million infrastructure project between 2002 and 2005 to support a power plant development.

Local fishermen have transformed sections of the bridge into informal gathering spots, using concrete sections for protection from sun while fishing.

Current regulations restrict access to motorcycles only, requiring visitors to park their vehicles and continue on foot to explore the structure.

The bridge offers views of Gunung Jerai mountain while connecting to an undeveloped island, making it a testament to incomplete development planning.

Inception: 2005
