RSSThe Indonesian Government has handed out contracts for the new Sunda Strait Bridge. Construction of the US$11 billion project is expected to commence in the first quarter of 2014. The preliminary work now starting includes a feasibility study and the first stages of the design process, with specialist consultants having been contracted for this work. The bridge will measure some 29km long and will connect Lampung in Sumatra and Merak in Java, crossing the Sunda Strait as its name suggests. The structure will feature six traffic lanes for cars, buses and trucks as well as twin rail tracks and additional lanes for motorcycles.
