BRIDGES OF PUTRAJAYA
INTRODUCTION
When master planners first envisioned Putrajaya, they had in
mind a modern city complete with several well-placed bridges
over the scenic 400-hectare lake. The bridges were not only
to serve as a connection between the various precincts, nor as
feats of architectural and engineering geniuses. They wanted the
bridges to portray the sense of growth and progress that Putrajaya
embraced.
And so, work began on Putrajaya’s eight bridges with this vision in
mind. By the time they were all completed, the bridges, -- Putra,
Seri Perdana, Seri Saujana, Seri Gemilang, Seri Wawasan, Seri Bakti,
Seri Bestari and Seri Setia – reflected Putrajaya’s fresh and modern
outlook with great artistry and poetry. The eight Putrajaya bridges
fall into three types of categories, i.e. beam bridges, arch bridges
and cable-stayed bridges.

Map of the ‘Bridges of Putrajaya’
PUTRA BRIDGE
Inspired by the design of the Khaju Bridge in Iran, Putra Bridge is an
impressive sight to behold. It took three years to complete and is now
referred to as the ceremonial bridge mainly because it is part of the
protocol route linking Putra Square to the Boulevard. The 435-metre
long Putra Bridge also makes up the focal point of Putrajaya
together with the Putra Mosque and the Putra Square. The bridge
connects Precinct 1 (Government Precinct) and Precinct 2 (Mixed
Development) on the Core Island.
A special feature of the bridge is its four octagonal towers and its wall
of Islamic motifs. A stroll along the promenade in the evenings is the
thing to do for some peaceful and quiet reflection. As night falls, a
special magic sets in when the bridge is lighted up.

SERI PERDANA BRIDGE
Located at the South-West of Precinct 1, this bridge connects the
Government Precinct to Precincts 8, 9, and 10 across the Putrajaya
Lake. The design is inspired by Moorish Islamic architecture with square
walls intricately laid with colourful tiles. Along the bridge are eight
pavilions with arches and domed roofs, and these act as viewing
decks for pedestrians to pause to take in the magnificent views of
the lake.
Compared to the other bridges, the Seri Perdana is simple in design,
yet remains elegant with its interesting tile-work in patterned hues of
yellow. This continuous beam bridge is 372 metres long and was one
of the first bridges to be completed in Putrajaya.

SERI BAKTI BRIDGE
This simple beam bridge is located in the northeast of the city that
connects Precinct 1 to the residential area of Precinct 16, which also
houses the official residence of the Deputy Prime Minister.
The 270-metre long Seri Bakti Bridge offers a beautiful panoramic
view of the surrounding area. Driving along this bridge towards the
Government Precinct imparts a sense of purpose and ceremony
because the road ahead leads to the Prime Minister’s office and
department.
This bridge has dual two-lane carriageways that provide access for
vehicles as well as pedestrians and cyclists. The tile work in Islamic
motifs and the stylised streetlamps along the length of the bridge
give it a unique identity.

SERI SETIA BRIDGE
The Seri Setia Bridge is a basic beam bridge that has been
transformed through clever design detailing to bring about the
beauty of this simple structure. Located in the southeast part of the
city, the Seri Setia Bridge spans 210 metres across the lake, bridging
the commercial district of Precinct 4 to Precinct 19, a high-density
residential area with full amenities and facilities.
The designers implemented simple design features to enhance the
beauty and functionality of the bridge. For example, the tropical
landscaping around the bridge not only serves as an aesthetic
element but also protects motorists from the glare of headlights of
oncoming traffic.
Another thoughtful design element is the dual three-lane road system
constructed on the bridge in anticipation of the heavier traffic in
the area. Other enhancements include the tapering of the “legs”
supporting the bridge, creating the illusion of an arched hallway
beneath the bridge, besides the reference to Islamic identity.

SERI GEMILANG BRIDGE
Seri Gemilang Bridge is located at the southern gateway connecting
the core island along the Boulevard to the Putra Bridge in the north.
It is a stunning double of Pont Alexandre III that spans the Seine River
in Paris, France, with intricate mouldings and detailed decorative
works inspired by the traditional Malay plant and floral motifs.
Four main towers with four smaller entrance towers complete this
240-metre long bridge. The Seri Gemilang is a work of art with its
romantic and elegant design against an amazing panorama.

SERI BESTARI BRIDGE
The Seri Bestari Bridge lies at the northeast side of Putrajaya,
connecting the Core Island to Taman Warisan Pertanian in Precinct
16. It is part of the direct route from the Deputy Prime Minister’s official
residence to the Core Island.
This concrete arch system bridge spans 152.6 metres and has dual
two-lane carriageways as well as a cycle track cum pedestrian
walkway. The footpath bears a tropical theme with its palm trees
and plants. Specially-designed lamp posts lighted up after dark with
mood lighting complete this stunning piece of architecture.

SERI WAWASAN BRIDGE
Located on the western side of the city, the Seri Wawasan Bridge
is the main link between Precincts 2 and 8. This magnificent cablestayed bridge symbolises strength with its modern and futuristic
design.
Spanning a length of 240 metres across the Putrajaya Lake, the
bridge with its elegant lines draws inspiration from the beauty of a
sailboat. At night, the whole look of the bridge is transformed with
interesting light play. This much-photographed bridge has become
an icon of Putrajaya.

SERI SAUJANA BRIDGE
The Seri Saujana Bridge is the signature bridge of Putrajaya. It is
the first bridge in the world to successfully combine two different
engineering techniques, arch and cable stay. There is no other
bridge structure like it in the world!
Located at the southwest corner of the city, this 300-metre bridge
connects Precinct 4 (Commercial Precinct) to Precinct 7.It serves as
a grand entrance into Putrajaya for those entering the city from the
south on the upgraded B15 road and Kuala Lumpur-Kuala Lumpur
International Airport highway.
The night view of Seri Saujana Bridge is even more impressive with
mood lighting to enhance the beautiful lines and architecture. Like
other bridges, it provides a pedestrian walkway and cycle track for
public usage.
