Pujut 7 Bridge (Left lane)
Pujut 7 Bridge is the bridge linking Permyjaya and Desa Pujut areas to Pujut, forming a main link to the Sarawak-Brunei border and serves seven housing estates, two commercial centres and an industrial estate, crossing the Miri River.
Originally a single-lane bridge built in the late 1990s linking Miri / Pujut to Permyjaya over the Miri river, the bridge was upgraded in 2010 to double lanes to improve traffic flow over the roads, which had become a bottleneck creating traffic slowdowns before the upgrades. The upgrade was completed five months ahead of schedule.
It was apparent the upgrade was rushed however as there is a huge uneven jarring bump when transitioning from the road to the bridge structure both ways, causing some airborne antics and possibly suspension damage when driven over by unsuspecting drivers at speed, and forcing drivers and traffic to slow down when crossing.
Beautiful Jade Center is one of the older townships in Miri right at city center. Built up in the mid 1970s, business traffic remains strong today.
Always colorful and full of vibrant patterns, the Kek Lapis Sarawak are a sight to behold just sitting in its dish awaiting to be eaten.
The Senadin Water Theme Park in Miri Sarawak, Borneo, is part of a larger project that will include a shopping complex and hotel. The park is expected to open in 2015.
At the Baram river delta, there exists an island formed from river silt with an identity problem. Its name changes just as many times as it physically changes forms and shape.
