Saloma Link

Saloma Link (Malay: Pintasan Saloma) is a 69 metres (226 ft) [1] combined pedestrian and bicyclist bridge across the Klang River directed northwest to southeast. It joins Kampung Baru, Kuala Lumpur (northwest) and Kuala Lumpur City Centre (southeast). On the southwestern end a ramp leads up to the bridge, whereas on the northwest there are stairs and an elevator from street level. The bridge’s architecture is inspired by the sireh junjung (betel nut leaf arrangement) concept, which is an integral part of a Malay wedding.[1] During night time the bridge cannot be accessed (from 01:00 until 05:00 from Monday to Saturday and 0:30 until 05:00 on Sundays and public holidays).[1]. The name is derived from the Malaysian-Singaporean singer Saloma, who is buried on the nearby Jalan Ampang Muslim Cemetery.
