Eastern Dispersal Link Expressway (E14) (12 September, 2016)
Johor Bahru Eastern Dispersal Link Expressway, also known by the acronym JB EDL, is the extension of the North-South Expressway Southern Route (E2). It carries the expressway code of E14. Located to the east of the Johor Bahru city centre, this 8.1-kilometer (5.0-mile) expressway was completed in 2012 at a cost of RM1 billion. The elevated expressway runs parallel to the at-grade Jalan Pasir Pelangi and Jalan Stulang Darat. For most of its route, it is an elevated highway above Jalan Pasir Pelangi. Construction on the JB EDL began on 1 October, 2007, and the expressway opened to the public on 1 April, 2012.
The opening of the Johor Bahru Eastern Dispersal Link Expressway enables motorists heading for the Sultan Iskandar CIQ Complex to bypass having to go through the congested city centre. Distances on the JB EDL is calculated from the CIQ complex. In the opposite direction, motorists not heading to the CIQ complex exits the expressway to the Johor Bahru Inner Ring Road.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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