The acquisition of this project further strengthens PTPP's portfolio in the infrastructure sector, especially the development of regional connectivity, as well as confirming the company's capabilities as a lead contractor on large-scale projects.
Overall, the construction of the Sea Island Bridge is a strategic project with the support of financing from various parties. The construction of the bridge, which is located in Batulicin District, Tanah Bumbu Regency, is expected to improve accessibility between Kalimantan Island and Sea Island.
The presence of this infrastructure will facilitate logistics distribution, increase community mobility, and encourage economic growth in the region, especially in Tanah Bumbu Regency and Kotabaru Regency.

Furthermore, PTPP emphasized that the contribution to the construction of the Sea Island Bridge is in line with the spirit of Asta Cita - especially in the effort to equalize the development of infrastructure and increase inter-regional connectivity which has a direct impact on economic growth and people's welfare. This shows how PTPP's involvement in infrastructure projects also supports the realization of an inclusive and sustainable national development vision.
