KUALA LUMPUR, Pansar Bhd’s wholly owned subsidiary, Perbena Emas Sdn Bhd, has received a letter of acceptance from the Sarawak Public Works Department (JKR) to undertake the design and construction of the proposed Serian-Gedong-Samarahan dual carriageway highway, valued at RM216.99 million.
In a filing with Bursa Malaysia today, Pansar said the 36-month contract is scheduled to begin in September 2025 and is expected to contribute positively to the group’s earnings and net assets throughout the project period.
The scope of works covers the upgrading of approximately four kilometres of the existing JKR R3 road from Jalan Lubok Teranggas to Kampung Gedong, currently a two-lane single carriageway, into a JKR R5 four-lane dual carriageway.
It also includes the construction of a new connecting road to Package 1 (Simpang Rayang/Munggu Kopi/Tanah Puteh/Sebemban to Gedong District, Section 1B). Additional works comprise an autonomous rail transit reserve within the median, bridge construction, bicycle tracks, utility corridors, a new roundabout, as well as the installation of road lighting, traffic signals, signage, road furniture, and drainage systems.
