The nearest market is the one at Jalan Baru Batu Maung. The nearest petrol station is in Bayan Lepas town, about 6 km away.

Location of Southbay Plaza

Southbay Plaza is 17.1 km from Komtar. A single round trip to downtown totals over 30 km, so for residential owners, it is more suitable for those who work or own businesses in the Bayan Lepas area. The same consideration does not apply to commercial owners, as the Batu Maung area will become more densely populated in the coming future, offering improved catchment of traffic to the plaza.

Traffic situation at Southbay Plaza

Traffic along Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway is increasing rapidly. The widening of the expressway to six lanes the whole way improves the traffic flow significantly.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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