George Town Inner Ring Road is an urban ring road within the city of George Town in Penang, Malaysia.[1] [2] It comprises the eastern end of Gurney Drive, Jalan Pangkor, Jalan Perak and Jalan Sungai Pinang, forming a loop within the city centre.
The ring road serves to alleviate traffic congestion by acting as a bypass between the city's northern coastline and the Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway to the southeast.[3] Whilst the ring road is presently formed by municipal roads, infrastructural plans have been drawn up to turn the roads into a proper expressway, including the construction of elevated bypasses and a tunnel.[4] [5]
