On February 26, 2025, the Sejingkat Bridge project in Sarawak, Malaysia celebrated a significant milestone with the successful installation of its first pair of stay cables. This achievement establishes a solid foundation for subsequent construction phases of this landmark infrastructure project.

Distinguished representatives from key stakeholders attended the ceremony, including officials from JABATAN KERJA RAYA SARAWAK (Project Owner), OPUS CONSULTANTS (M) SDN. BHD. (Project Management), JURUTERA MINSAR CONSULT SDN BHD (Consulting Company), KACC CONSTRUCTION SDN. BHD. (Main Contractor), and CHEC CONSTRUCTION(M) SDN. BHD. (Contractor). Each organization delivered remarks commemorating this important achievement.

The Sejingkat Bridge stands as Malaysia's second-longest main span cable-stayed bridge and ranks among Southeast Asia's most impressive engineering structures. As a vital transportation link, the bridge will catalyze economic development along the Sarawak River corridor.

Technical Specifications

The Sejingkat Bridge features a sophisticated dual-pylon, double-plane cable-stayed design with a span configuration of 200m+400m+200m across the Sarawak River. Its distinctive dual-A tower design incorporates five sets of saddles at the tower peaks. This cable-stayed bridge uniquely combines guyed form traveller technology with an saddle structure.

Each pylon accommodates 17 pairs of stay cables, installed using a precise single-cable installation methodology. The OVM team executed this complex process through meticulous planning, enhanced communication protocols, and rigorous on-site management practices, ensuring efficient and seamless cable installation.

This milestone marks an important step forward in delivering this transformative infrastructure project for the people and economy of Sarawak.
