Jalan Paya TerubongJalan Paya Terubong (10 February 2013)


Jalan Paya Terubong is one of the main roads on Penang Island. It runs through the central part of the island connecting Air Itam to the north with Relau in the south, a distance of some 8.4 km. The road itself was named after the township of Paya Terubong, which began as a hill village in the centre of the island.

Once a hill path, Jalan Paya Terubong has seen an increase in traffic over the past two decades. This is attributed to the increase in the population of Paya Terubong. As many work in the Bayan Lepas area, Jalan Paya Terubong forms the only artery connecting the two areas. As a result, the road is highly congested particularly during the morning and evening rush hour.

About this website



Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
