A new road connecting Nusa Dua and the Bali Cliff is nearing realization as a road between the two points is being paved.
Direct access is, however, being held up by the acquisition of a one-hectare plot of land still in private hands for which a purchase price has yet to be agreed.
The road connecting the Nikko Bali Resort and Spa and Bali Cliff will be six kilometers long and have a width of 24-meters. Most of the length has already been paved with only one remaining stretch of road still under review.
Surya Suamba, chief of road and bridges for the regency of Badung, said he doubted the final stretch of road would be completed before the APEC Conference taking place in late 2013 because the cost of constructing the final piece of roadway is not listed in the 2013 development budget.
Negotiations for the final one-hectare parcel of land continue.
