# Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway

The Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway (Chinese: 敦林苍佑大道; Malay: Lebuhraya Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu), signed as Federal Route 3113, is an expressway in George Town that connects its city centre with Batu Maung at its south. This 17.8 kilometres (11.1 mi) expressway stretches along the eastern coast of Penang Island. It was named in honour of Penang's second chief minister, Lim Chong Eu who died in 2010. There are two sections of the expressway, the Jelutong Expressway and Bayan Lepas Expressway.

## Route background

Kilometre zero is located at Batu Maung. The second elevated highway in Penang after Kuala Lumpur and Bayan Baru was constructed at Bayan Lepas Expressway here. This long flyover links the newer Penang Second Bridge in the south straight away to Bayan Baru for skipping traffic jams.
The underpass under it is used to travel along Bayan Lepas industrial area.

## History

The pioneer route for the expressway was constructed on 1983 during the Penang Bridge was built and was completed in 1985. Later, the expressway was extended northwards as the Jelutong Expressway, and southwards as the Bayan Lepas Expressway.
On 7 December 2010, after former second Penang chief minister Lim Chong Eu died on 24 November 2010, the Penang state government renamed the expressway Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway in his honour.
Construction of the 6 km (3.7 mi) long Ayer Itam–Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway Bypass, part of the Penang Transport Master Plan, is expected to be completed by 2025. The bypass was designed to disperse traffic from the expressway by providing a direct route through Gelugor to Paya Terubong.
