About Jalan Sultan Ismail

Jalan Sultan Ismail was named after the 14th Sultan of Terengganu, the late Tuanku Ismail Nasiruddin Shah, who was the fourth Yang di-Pertuan Agong from 1965 to 1970. It comprises at least two roads, Treacher Road and Broadrick Road¹. Treacher Road was named after Sir William Hood Treacher, who was the British Resident of Selangor from 1892 to 1896.

The original Treacher Road runs from the junction of Jalan Ampang to the intersection of Jalan Bukit Bintang. It was extended to reach the intersection of Jalan Imbi in the 1960s, when the road was already translated as Jalan Treacher.

The original Broadrick Road runs from Jalan Kuching to the intersection of Jalan Ampang. It was named after Lieutenant Colonel Edward George Broadrick, who served as the British Resident of Selangor from 1910 to 1918.

Along the way are four monorail stations namely the Bukit Bintang Monorail Station, Raja Chulan Monorail Station, Bukit Nanas Monorail Station and Medan Tuanku Monorail Station.

Near the end of Jalan Sultan Ismail, the RapidKL Ampang Line crosses the street. The Sultan Ismail LRT Station is on the south side of the street, across from Takaful Ikhlas.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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