Federal Route 87, or Jalan Mentakab-Temerloh, is a main federal road in Pahang, Malaysia. The 15.6 km (9.1 mi) roads connects Mentakab until Temerloh. The roads was called Federal Route 2 before Mentakab-Temerloh Bypass was built in 1978.[1]

## Route background

[edit]

The Kilometre Zero of the Federal Route 87 starts at Mentakab South, at its interchange with the Federal Route 2, the main trunk road of the central of Peninsula Malaysia.

## History

[edit]

Further information: Malaysia Federal Route 2 § History

In 1971, the old Temerloh Bridge spanning across the Pahang River collapsed due to the huge flood in Temerloh. As a result, the Malaysian Public Works Department (JKR) constructed a 575-m replacement bridge known as the Sultan Ahmad Shah Bridge FT2 beside the old bridge.[2] The Sultan Ahmad Shah Bridge was much higher than the old bridge, forming the first grade-separated interchange in Pahang that was linked to the Federal Route 10. The new bridge project also included a new roadway that bypassed Temerloh and Mentakab, causing the former Temerloh-Mentakab section to be re-gazetted as the Federal Route 87.[3] The construction of the Sultan Ahmad Shah Bridge was completed in 1974.[2]

## Features

[edit]

At most sections, the Federal Route 87 was built under the JKR R5 road standard, allowing maximum speed limit of up to 90 km/h.
