GEORGE TOWN: The hillside road to Balik Pulau where a sector of its extra lane collapsed recently should be temporarily closed for a detailed assessment, said Penang MCA vice-chairman Wong Chin Chong.

“The state government should investigate this construction project as it has caused inconvenience to residents over seven months of its closure.

“The investigation report should also be made public as the project is related to public safety and interest,” he said in a statement. State Works, Utilities and Flood Mitigation Committee chairman Zairil Khir Johari said the repair works at the affected hillside road was progressing well. “We should be able to complete the repairs ahead of the scheduled May 24 date but this depends on the weather.“If it rains, remedial works will be difficult,” he said when contacted.Last week, the extra lane on the downward slope of the 80m stretch in Jalan Bukit Lama linking Bayan Lepas to Balik Pulau collapsed, three days after the south-west monsoon began.
