Location of Desa Bayan
Taman Sri Bayan is 17.5 km from Komtar, 8.3 km to the Second Penang Bridge and 2.8 km to the Penang International Airport via Persiaran Rajawali. It would be ideal for people working in the south side, like at the Bayan Lepas Industrial Zone, but a bit far for those working in the city. The location, as it is, is still quite remote. It may take a few more years for the neighbourhood to urbanise.
