Bridge collapse at Nicoll Highway

Don't forget CSS can't amend its routes so this might be the LAST amendment it ever makes.

The central divider along Nicoll Highway, with the junction of Republic Avenue, has been cut. Upgrading work is ongoing at this junction, for to-be-confirmed opening of the section of Nicoll Highway between Middle Road and Republic Avenue. Once re-open confirmed, east bound motorists can use Nicoll Highway between Stamford Road and Republic Avenue, and then divert onto Republic Avenue and continue to Crawford Street via Crawford vehicular underpass.

I went to Beach Rd yesterday afternoon. The original plates there are left untouched, while new plates with diverted services are added.

I dont get what you mean. Care to explain it simpler? Thanks. Is this Republic Ave/Nicoll Highway junction outside The Concourse before the accident site? If that's the case i get your point Very Happy

Yes. This is the junction of Nicoll Highway and Republic Ave, near the temporary overhead pedestrian bridge and The Concourse bus stops.

A section of the barricade on the central divider along Nicoll Highway at this junction has been cut off, and the kerbs removed. This was done so that motorists can turn right into Republic Ave from Nicoll Highway (Kallang bound). Kerbs were also removed along a section of Republic Ave near the junction.

I guess the purpose is to re-open the section of Nicoll Highway between Middle Rd and Republic Ave (or maybe Java Rd), and the entire section of Republic Ave. If this becomes a reality, motorists from the city going towards Kallang can then use Nicoll Highway, turn right into Republic Ave, via Crawford vehicular underpass and continues to Crawford St.

A section of Nicoll Highway between Mountbatten Rd and Stadium Drive re-opened today (25 April) at 2pm.

This would mean SBST11 is back as usual and SBST16 towards Marine Parade would be able to enter Stadium area via Nicoll Highway, then onto Stadium Drive and Stadium Rd. Is there any blue/green directional signs that leads to Nicoll Highway?

Only service 11 is allowed.

From the news on TV, I saw orange signs "Access to Stadium Dr only" placed at Mountbatten Rd junction.

I guess services 16, 401 and 608 are allowed too, as entering and exiting via the same road (Stadium Blvd) may confuse the drivers.

Hey there everyone! Smile

Basically, that guy's mad and the entry's crap, that's all. Never come across my good friend's father mentioning anything about buses or cars, for he's a real LTA engineer also involved in the Circle Line, though not Nicoll Highway station.

He's just trying to sensationalize.
