The Extension of Queensway to the AYE and the Queensway Underpass
will be opened to traffic on 13 August 2005 at 2.00pm. Motorists
will be able to enjoy uninterrupted traffic flow along Queensway
and get onto the AYE directly, without having to stop at the
signalised junctions at Queensway, Commonwealth Avenue, Jalan Bukit
Merah and Alexandra Road.
SBST might want to take advantage of the new link and consider
implementing a new route that linkup ang mo kio, yio chu kang road,
bradell road, novena, farrer, queensway, aye (nus), aye, jurong
town hall (IBP), jurong east. It will probably suck up many
existing smrt train commuters.
From 13 August 2005, motorists coming from Commonwealth Drive will
not be allowed to turn right into Queensway. They are advised to
turn left and make a U-turn at the junction of
Queensway/Commonwealth Avenue.
How is sMRT61 affected (from c'wealth drive to queensway)? Can't
see any press release in smrt website. If making a u turn at the
junction, will it result in increase in fare stages?
