Download coordinates as: Tanah Merah is a residential suburb in the City of Logan, Queensland, Australia.

The Pintu Drive off-ramp is the designated exit from the M1 for Tanah Merah and nearby is the Bryants Road overpass.

[citation needed] Murray's Road also holds the largest single population of Austromyrtus gonoclada trees.

Originally this land was bought and named by the McBride's, an English family who moved to Brisbane from Penang, Malaysia.

[citation needed] The hill side to the north of the Logan Motorway was once owned by the Murray family who sold it off in sections to developers.
