Default Pulau Tikus free shuttle bus to extend route

For bus lovers in Penang....

The Pulau Tikus free shuttle bus is extending its route from Friday. (Not clear if this is just for CNY or permanently extended.)

It's a loop which goes Jalan Kelawai-Jalan Tanjung Tokong-Jalan Fettes-Jalan Mt Erskine-Jalan Burma- Jalan Pangkor- Jalan Kelawai.

Default Re: Pulau Tikus free shuttle bus to extend route

I can't find a route map either. However, I did use this loop line a few times.
The bus runs its loop once every hour, leaving on the hour (e.g. 09:00, 10:00, 11:00 etc.) from its parking position at the g hotel on Jalan Kelawai.
You can actually see it parked on Google's street view: https://www.google.com/maps/place/G+...3b8739!6m1!1e1
After following Jl. Kelawai for a bit it turns left to head for Jl. Burmah. It follows Jl. Burmah until the Gleneagles Hospital. From there it gets back on Jl. Kelawai to return to its parking position.

There was a route map on Facebook today. I'll try and remember to post a link tomorrow when I'm back on my laptop.

That is what it used to do until now. As you can see from BB's post will it, from now on, go straight ahead.
