Lebuhraya Gelugor is a major road on the southern part of George Town. It runs in a roughly east-west direction between Gelugor and Jelutong. On the eastern end it connects with Jalan Gelugor while on the western end it connects with Lebuhraya Batu Lanchang.
Lebuhraya Gelugor was first developed into its present length in the early 1960s, when the area experienced housing development. The road is also called Gelugor Avenue (not Gelugor Highway, as appearing in Google Map). As traffic through the Gelugor and Jelutong areas increased, it was turned into a one-way street running east to west, a development that remained until the end of the first decade of the 21st century, when it reverted to a two-way traffic flow.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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