Jiu Jie Street
Explanation:
汕头市的路名有: 街,巷, 里, 路,道,坊,胡同等种类。"直街"是其中的一种。
就像美国的 Rd, St, Blvd, Ave, Dr等。
"旧街"是街名,可译为 Jiujie St, 或Jiujie Rd等,这要看“旧街”的具体情况而定。

如不对,望指正。

Explanation:
From the examples below, I think it's a street name (instead of a description). So for this address, I'd use Pin Yin: Jiu Jie Zhi Jie


Example sentence(s):
  • 广东省潮阳市文光街道兴归旧街直街41号17户
  • 潮阳区棉城兴归居委旧街直街8号17户
