Temporary Realignment of Serangoon Road from 12 July
2008
1. A
stretch of Serangoon Road starting from the traffic junction of
Serangoon Road and Whampoa North will be split into two sections
and temporarily realigned. This is part of several phases of
temporary traffic diversions that have been planned to facilitate
the construction of the road tunnels as part of the Woodsville
Interchange upgrading project.
2.
With the realignment, traffic will be segregated into two separate
directions. Traffic moving towards PIE (Tuas) will have to keep to
the left lanes of Serangoon Road and traffic towards Upper
Serangoon Road and MacPherson Road will have to keep to the right
lanes and travel along the realigned stretch of Serangoon
Road.
3. The
split and realignment of Serangoon Road will start from 12 July
2008 and will last for a period of about 3 years until the road
tunnels are completed
4.
Traffic signs will be put up ahead of the split and realignment to
inform and guide motorists in advance so that they are able to
decide on the lane of travel before reaching the
junction.
5. The
junction between Serangoon Road and Moonstone Lane will also be
signalised to control traffic flow coming out from Moonstone Lane.
The existing U-turn from Serangoon Road to Bendemeer Road will be
removed.

Please refer to the attached
map for more details of the diversion and
realignment.
7. LTA

minimum. Should motorists have any queries, they can contact the
LTA hotline at 1800-CALL LTA.
