Federal Route 6[1] is a federal road around Penang Island, Malaysia.[2]

The Federal Route 6 is the main circular trunk road that circles through the Penang Island. Its starting terminal (Kilometre Zero) and the ending terminal are located at the Penang Port Roundabout, George Town.

The road was constructed by the British in the 1920s.

At most sections, the Federal Route 6 was built under the JKR R5 road standard, with a speed limit of 90 km/h.

There are no overlaps, alternate routes, or sections with motorcycle lanes.

The entire route is around Penang Island in Penang.
