The people who lived in Kampong Sumbiling Baru moved to Kampong Mata-Mata, which was farther inland, in 1970. In the same year, the roads leading to Jalan Tutong were expanded through land reclamation and destruction. The former location of Kampong Sumbiling Baru was cleared and expanded towards Kampung Ujong Bukit as part of this development. The Supreme Court building, which is now situated close to the banks of the Kedayan River, was also built as part of these efforts; however, it is believed that Kampong Parit did not initially own it.{{Cite web |last=Haji Mohd Daud Abdul Rahman |date=2017-04-29 |title=Asal tempat Kampung Parit |url=https://mediapermata.com.bn/asal-tempat-kampung-parit/ |url-access=subscription |archive-url=https://archive.today/20250311070803/https://mediapermata.com.bn/asal-tempat-kampung-parit/#selection-3383.0-3383.618 |archive-date=2025-03-11 |access-date=2025-03-11 |website=mediapermata.com.bn |publisher=Media Permata Online |language=ms}}
