Jalan Tun Dr Awang, Penang (3 September 2011)


Jalan Tun Dr Awang is a major road in the southern part of Penang Island. It runs from the Bayan Baru Roundabout to the Bayan Lepas Flyover.

Jalan Tun Dr Awang was named after Tun Datuk Dr Haji Awang bin Hassan, the 5th Yang di-Pertua Negeri or Governor of Penang, who served from 1981 to 1989.

Jalan Tun Dr Awang is the main road out of the Penang International Airport. When it was built, it acted as a bypass to the busier Jalan Sultan Azlan Shah. Since then, it has also became equally busy, with the heaviest traffic between the Bayan Baru Roundabout and Jalan Dato Ismail Hashim.

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While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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.
