CCK Rd is now broken into 8 stretches:
1. CCK Rd end - Sungei Tengah Rd
2. Now part of KJE
3. Junction with Jln Lam Sam - Brickland Rd
4. Brickland Rd - CCK Terrace (disappeared)
5. CCK Terrace
6. CCK Ave 1 (CCK Terrace to CCK Way)
7. CCK Way (CCK Ave 1 to Bt Batok Rd)
8. CCK Rd (Bt Batok Rd to Woodlands Rd/Upp Bt Timah Rd)

CCK Rd once stretched from CCK Rd end to Woodlands Rd/Upp Bt Timah Rd junction.

but bus guides still treat the separate roads as CCK Rd.

btw, an off topic but still on roads ques:
Can anyone tell me more about Hong Kah Village near Jurong Rd? When were the roads demolished?

tranquilice SG

Demolished? Rolling Eyes I guess there's still some tracks there which lead to Jln Lam Sam, but were no longer indicated on the street directory. Further deep into Jln Lam Sam is currently used as a military training area, out of public access.

freakybuses SG

But why not indicated in street directories?

tranquilice SG

Saw my mighty minds 2002 street directory, some tracks off Jurong Rd are indicated. As for now, I'm not sure as I have not been passing there on service 174.

freakybuses SG

Track 18 and 22 I suppose? but not Hong Kah Circle.

tranquilice SG

Correct.

The_Bus_Guide SG

Traces of these roads are still visible. Tracks 18, 20 and 22 are still in use. Hong Kah Circle is out of bounds. The area have been declared as a "Protected Place" so please do not venture there.

freakybuses SG

Any other roads sealed and Out of Bounds to public?

gynobcard SG

Those in Seletar East Camp. those NS guys who have been to seletar wet gap should know. although the street directory shows the roads nicely, its actually one hell of a convoluted network of gravel tracks in there

leeJZ SG

Changi Airport Cargo Complex? How about Gombak Drive etc the roads surrounding the MINDEF HQ at Upp Bukit Timah Rd.

BTW how do those inspectors manage to check everyone on the bus at the CACC during peak hours? When the bus is loaded with plenty standing...

cck_190 SG

Whatabout the roads in Keat Hong Camp 1? The one opposite Bt Batok Rd, near CCK? My mom told me that was the old road that linked CCK & BB.

freakybuses SG

You mean the junction below Bt Batok Rd, bef CCK Way?

cck_190 SG

Yup,yup,yup...

thots SG

passenger can choose not to alight when bus reach gombak drive. even if the passenger alight, they still have to pass by main gate (which is about 200m from the bus stop) where military police will check their pass before entering mindef.

tranquilice SG

Yes, it's out of bound. Went inside before as a NSF.

tranquilice SG

What's Seletar wet gap?

In the east camp, the roads from the main gate to the former medical centre (where service 103 U-turn) is considered public. After the medical centre, there will be a post where regimental police stationed (in the past), from there onwards the roads are private. Correct if I'm wrong. Wink

MINDEF car park as indicated in the bus guide refers to the car park outside the MINDEF pass office. Service 177 buses will enter this carpark, there is a stop for boarding and alighting.
