Road closures for this year’s F1 race will occur over 6 days
Road closures in preparation for this year's Formula 1 SingTel Singapore Grand Prix will take place over six days - a time frame similar to previous years, according to the race organiser and authorities.
The Land Transport Authority (LTA), Singapore GP and the Singapore Tourism Board said in a joint statement on August 29 that affected roads will be closed from 12 midnight on September 18 to facilitate the set up of the night race.
The authorities have urged the public to use public transport during the period of road closures. For those driving, they can access the Marina Centre area through a single-lane road from Nicoll Highway and Temasek Boulevard at selected times.
During the race weekend, between September 20 and 22, train services will be increased to cope with higher demand, with operating hours extended until 1am. Operating hours for selected feeder bus services will also be extended to match the last train services.
When the race is completed, affected roads will reopen progressively, and all roads will be fully accessible by 5.30am on September 24. More information is available at the LTA and MyTransport.SG websites.
