Jalan Kuala, SingaporeJalan Kuala, Singapore (30 July 2017)


Jalan Kuala is a minor road in the River Valley Planning Area of Singapore. It is in Postal District 09. The road connects to River Valley Road on one end, and reaches a dead end on the other. It is largely a residential road lined with apartment and condominium complexes.

Jalan Kuala dates back to 1958 (according to Singapore Street Names), when a new government school was built there. I believe that school would be the River Valley English and Chinese School, precursor of present-day River Valley Primary School, which was established in 1985. The reason the road got its name is that it is heading in the direction of the Singapore River, and the name Jalan Kuala means "estuary road" in Malay.

About this website



Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
