Permas Jaya

Permas Jaya, with the official name of Bandar Baru Permas Jaya, is a housing estate and light industrial area located in Johor Bahru District, Johor, Malaysia under the administration of Johor Bahru City Council. It has about 40,000-45,000 residents. The Permas Jaya Bridge connects it with Kampung Baru Bakar Batu, Taman Sentosa and downtown Johor Bahru. The Second Permas Jaya Bridge is completed and had helped to reduce traffic jams. The new Eastern Dispersal Link has also been completed and opened for public on 1 April 2012. Vehicles from Singapore now can directly drive into the highway and to Pasir Gudang. This have saved a lot of time for the Singaporeans and the Permas Jaya residents who met with traffic jams everyday during the project of Second Permas Jaya Bridge and the EDL Highway are being carried out.
