Jalan Ipoh, Kuala Lumpur

Jalan Ipoh is a major road, and one of the longest, in Kuala Lumpur. The road got its name from being the trunk road leading out of the city towards Ipoh in the north. It is therefore part of Federal Route 1.
Within the Kuala Lumpur city limits, Jalan Ipoh starts at the intersection with Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman, Jalan Pahang and Jalan Raja Muda in the Chow Kit area. From here, the first major junction is the one-way exit from Jalan Raja Laut. Next is an interchange flyover with Jalan Tun Razak, which is also the Kuala Lumpur Middle Ring Road 1. Following that, the next interchange flyover is at Sentul Link.
Jalan Ipoh divides into two at the junction with Jalan Segambut Utara, which leads to Jalan Duta. Jalan Ipoh continues through the industrial part of northern Kuala Lumpur until the big roundaboutn interchange with Jalan Kuching. To continue along Jalan Ipoh, you need to make a 3 o'clock turn at the roundabout and head north.
The final interchange is with the Middle Ring Road II. Heading north from here takes you on the Old Trunk Road, also called the Federal Route 1, towards Ipoh. A 3 o'clock turn here takes you onto the Middle Ring Road II towards Batu Caves.
