HDB expects the junction to be completed around end-2024 or early 2025.
SINGAPORE - A project to join the main road of Bidadari town to Bartley Road has restarted after a one-year limbo.
The HDB spokesman said Bartley Road – a heavily used six-lane dual carriageway – will still need to be raised, but by 0.7m instead of 0.9m originally. According to HDB, joining Bidadari Park Drive to Bartley Road at its current elevation would result in a steep gradient for Bartley Walk, a small road linking Bidadari Park Drive to Mount Vernon Road.Meanwhile, residents in the area are bemoaning the long wait for additional access, which the new junction will provide.
“They will have to make a U-turn at Serangoon Avenue 1, and then another U-turn before Upper Paya Lebar Road to get home.”
