Lebuhraya Peel

Peel Avenue is one of the most stately avenues in George Town. It runs from Pangkor Road to Macalister Road, where it also joins Codrington Avenue. Both Peel and Codrington avenues are planted with royal palms, giving them an air of grandeur.

Peel Avenue was laid out in the early 20th century, when George Town was growing outwards into the suburbs. It was named after William Peel, the Resident Councillor of Penang from 1925 to 1926.
