Telok Blangah Road is a major road in Bukit Merah, Singapore. It connects Pasir Panjang Road in the west to Keppel Road in the east. It got its name from a bay in that area. Today the road runs parallel to the elevated West Coast Highway Viaduct.
Telok Blangah is located in Singapore Postal District 04.
Singapore Street Names cited historian Widodo (2004) as saying that circa 1800, Telok Blangah was a port of call for Bugis traders who also used the bay for shelter during bad weather.
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While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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.
