An unused bridge after the ELITE Highway toll in Cyberjaya collapsed this afternoon at around 12.40pm, 28 February 2013. The first few pictures of the collapsed bridge surfaced on Twitter and Facebook, with rumours of it being an old report, but it was confirmed later on by news sources. What was the cause of the collapse? Will this collapse turn political? 'Follow this Story' for the latest updates...
A flyover in Selangor Science Park in Cyberjaya collapsed today, in the latest incident involving public works projects in the country.
Several Twitter users have circulated photographs of the flyover which appears to have been broken into two pieces. It is understood that no one was hurt in the incident.
Last week the roof the state stadium in Kuala Terengganu also fell down. It was undergoing repairs from an earlier collapse.
The flyover, which was closed last November, is an exit from the Elite Highway (KM P2.4) towards SSP2.
It is owned by the Selangor State Development Corporation (PKNS), while the road below it is the Lingkaran Putrajaya stretch managed by PLUS Malaysia Berhad.
A pipe running along the flyover also broke during the collapse.
A December 9, 2012, statement on the PLUS website states that a traffic diversion was activated in December on the Lingkaran Putrajaya stretch below the flyover to facilitate bridge inspection works.
A traffic jam has built around the area as drivers slowed their cars to look at the collapsed flyover.
Around 10 PLUS officers and a few security guards from the PKNS showroom beside the flyover have gathered around it.
SSP2 is a PKNS property project that is touted to be Malaysia’s first solar city.
The Star reported in November 2008 that the RM56 million flyover would provide easier access to commuters from the city centre and the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) to the 1,300-acre SSP2.
The English daily also said that SSP2, which is an integrated mixed development project with industrial, commercial and residential components, was formed to expand PKNS’ SSP1 in Kota Damansara.
另一樁豆腐渣工程？希望當局關注近期發生的體育館及高架天橋坍塌事件，別等到意外發生了，再來亡羊補牢。
雪州賽城一座未正式通車的高架天橋坍塌，慶幸沒有人傷亡。初步瞭解，該座天橋中間一根支撐的橋墩突然斷裂，使到中間部位塌了下來，形成V字形。
這座高架橋坍塌是於週四下午2時，發生在賽城往安曼布特拉方向，靠近賽城科學園的高架天橋，橋塌已影響整體結構。
But the true, its cause by this si gemuk~~~~
