Jalan Tun Sardon (Penang State Road P14) is a major road in Penang, Malaysia.[1] The road stretches from Balik Pulau in the west to Paya Terubong in the east. It was first proposed in 1968 under the First Malaysia Plan by the then Penang Chief Minister Wong Pow Nee, with an estimated cost of M$2 million (Malaysian dollar).[2] The route was subsequently named in honour of Sardon Jubir, who served as the Governor of Penang between 1975 and 1981.[3]
