The Proposed Project

The Department of National Defence (DND) has proposed a project. The Project includes the realignment of Dunns Road on either side of its approach to the Nerepis River, installation of a new watercourse crossing (arch culvert) where Dunns Road meets the Nerepis River and removal of the current Tok Chong Bridge. The existing bridge will be removed excepting the abutments which will remain in place for training exercises.
