A new slip road will allow motorists travelling from Braddell Road to make a direct left turn into Serangoon Ave 1.
SINGAPORE – A new slip road and a pedestrian overhead bridge will be constructed as part of a junction that will link Bartley Road to the main road of Bidadari town.
An additional dedicated right-turn lane will be constructed to allow traffic coming from the direction of Bartley Road East – where Maris Stella High is situated – to turn directly into Serangoon Avenue 1, said HDB. The roadworks for the upcoming junction will be completed by the end of 2024 or in early 2025, more than two years after the originally slated completion date in the fourth quarter of 2022.for almost a year in 2023 after HDB said Bartley Road had to be raised because Bidadari Park Drive was more than 1m higher.
Ms Luann Teo, who lives in a condominium in How Sun Drive, said traffic in the area from 5pm to 7.30pm is already “quite bad”, with a private-hire car ride from Toa Payoh back home taking at least 30 minutes – more than double the usual drive of 10 to 15 minutes at off-peak hours. The 34-year-old business development manager said it might be safer to set up bollards, or short vertical posts, at that island.
