Penang Bridge 2 or Sultan Abdul Halim Muadzam Shah Bridge, Penang, Malaysia July, 2018 1:05 PM.

The total length of the bridge is 24 km (15 mi) with 16.9 km (10.5 mi) over water, linking Penang to Peninsular Malaysia. It is the longest bridge in Malaysia and the second longest in Southeast Asia, behind the 30 km (19 mi) Sultan Haji Omar Ali Saifuddien Bridge in Brunei.  China Harbour Engineering Company in November 2008 started the project and completed it in 2011, but the completion date was postponed to May 2012 and later to February 2014.  To reduce the cost of construction, its design was modified to resemble Penang Bridge. The project was completed with a major loan from China, in an effort to maintain the economic relationship  between the two nations.  The Penang Second Bridge was officially opened on 1 March 2014 and was named after the fourteenth Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Sultan Tuanku Abdul Halim Muadzam Shah of Kedah.
