Lorong Jawa 4, Butterworth
Lorong Jawa 4 is a residential lane located within the Taman Jawa housing estate in Butterworth, Seberang Perai, Penang. The road is accessed from its western end via Lorong Jawa 1, and it terminates at a backlane on its eastern side.
Layout and Surroundings
Lorong Jawa 4 is a short and quiet road, typical of the small residential lanes in Taman Jawa. Both its northern and southern sides are lined with rows of two-storey terrace houses, giving the lane a uniform and tightly knit residential feel. With no through traffic, it primarily serves the residents whose houses face it.
Connectivity
The road’s only access point is at its western end, which connects to Lorong Jawa 1. Its eastern end culminates in a backlane, restricting passage to vehicles but providing service access for the houses. This makes Lorong Jawa 4 a cul-de-sac-style lane, enhancing its quiet residential character.
