Penang transportation by the numbers
We examine the transport situation in Penang and provide the statistics on the trends and modes of transportation available in the state.
Vehicle re-registration across all types has undergone steady growth albeit with a slowdown occurring in 2012-2013. We witnessed a deceleration of 1.5% for motorcycles and 3.4% for private cars for year-to-year rates in 2013 – probably a direct reflection of rising fuel prices from RM1.75 (May 2009) to RM2.30 (November 2014) for RON 95.
