The West Coast Expressway (WCE) / Lebuhraya Pantai Barat (LPB) is an interstate controlled-access highway running along the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia.
The 233-kilometre (145-mile) expressway is currently under construction, with several sections open for public use.
The West Coast Expressway is a privatization project approved by the Government to West Coast Expressway Sdn Bhd (WCE). The project, operates on a build-transfer-transfer model. The project is expected to be completed in five years’ time.
The West Coast Expressway (E32) commences at a junction with Selangor State Road FT31 which runs from Banting, Selangor and ends at the ramp of Changkat Jering toll plaza of the North-South Expressway at Taiping, Perak.
It is planned and designed in such a way so that it is well-connected to the existing highways (such as PLUS, SKVE, NKVE, NNKSB, LATAR, KESAS, etc.), in order to maximize its coverage and gives the road users more options while travelling.
The entire expressway with 21 interchanges will provide convenience to users to plan and travel more efficiently.
Once the expressway is completed, it will be the fourth longest in Peninsular Malaysia, after the North-South Expressway Northern Route, the East Coast Expressway and the North-South Expressway Southern Route.
