This new road into Sentosa is in anticipation of the over 15 million of visitors to Sentosa when the Integrated Resort opens in early 2010. The S$80 million, 710-metre, 3-lane bridge will run parallel to the existing causeway which connects Sentosa to the mainland. It is expected to be completed in Sep 09.
Works on the bridge started in May 08. This construction is in addition to reclamation at Sentosa for the Integrated Resort, as well the massive Pasir Panjang extension project. The natural shores nearby include those on Sentosa and Labrador.
