: The estimated cost for the proposed construction of the East Coast Expressway 3 from Kampung Gemuroh, Kuala Terengganu, to Kampung Tunjong, Kota Bharu, Kelantan, is expected to rise to RM9.8 billion compared to the RM2.867 billion estimated in 2009.
“For LPT1, the cost was RM1.477 billion from Karak to Jabor, and the toll charged was only for maintenance. For LPT2, opened in 2015, the cost was RM4.37 billion from Jabor to Kuala Telemong, with tolls set at 9.84 sen per km, also for maintenance. Responding to Shaharizukirnain’s initial question on the Cabinet’s decision regarding the construction of LPT3, Ahmad said the request for proposal process for LPT3 was currently under review by the Public-Private Partnership Unit under the Prime Minister’s Department .
Asked about the factors necessitating a review of the initial 2009 study on the highway alignment, the Pontian MP said it was to further refine the alignment and cost of the proposed project, which was planned to be implemented through a public-private partnership via a competitive RFP bidding process.
