History
It was constructed between 1955 and 1957. The bridge was officially opened in 1957 when Malaya achieved its independence from Britain, hence its name. The bridge was initially a 2-lane single carriageway bridge before being duplicated on another side for Penang-bound traffic to increase traffic capacity.
