Jalan Putra, Kuala Lumpur (Jun 2024)

Jalan Putra is a minor road in the Chow Kit neighbourhood of Kuala Lumpur. It connects the planned KL PWTC (from the defunct Hentian Putra Bus Terminal) in the west to Jalan Chow Kit in the east, at the intersection of Jalan Raja Laut. Several roads intersect with Jalan Putra or branch off from it. They include Jalan Tun Ismail, Jalan Thamboosamy, and Jalan Ipoh Kecil, among others.

Jalan Putra was named after the Putra World Trade Centre, which in turn was named after Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj, the first prime minister of Malaysia. Several other roads in Kuala Lumpur are named after him, including Jalan Tunku and Jalan Tunku Putra.
