F1 Road Closure in Singapore 2010


F1 2010 Singapore is finally here. The pre-race practise started on my birthday, how cool is that?! *giggle*
Alright, when the big boys are on the road, the usual cars in Singapore would have to step aside. F1 Road Closure in Singapore 2010 is something you must take note of, if you are going to that area.

I think this year's F1 Road Closure in Singapore 2010 is very confusing. There are certain roads that are opened during peak hours and certain roads remain closed. *scratch head*

Anyway to me, I would rather avoid the entire area than to get myself stuck. There are also carparks around the area, which are going to be inaccessible to the public during this F1 Road Closure in Singapore 2010. So forget about driving, Take Public Transport during this F1 Road Closure in Singapore 2010.


The F1 Road Closure in Singapore 2010 started on the 18th of September 2010 and will be fully back to normal after 29th September 2010. Why so long? Well, the busy workers have to do the set up and the tear down of the seats and massive lightings, etc.

The actual event is from 24th to 26th September 2010. Get your ear plugged up and get going, if you are a crazy fan of those noisy 4-wheeled beauties.

No matter what, PLEASE take Public Transport!! There are taxis, buses and trains. Ain't that good enough?


On Saturday, Esplanade Drive and Nicoll Highway will be opened from 5 am to 9.30am. Many ERP gantries will be down during these times. Yippee!!! *laugh* Well, simply because the gantries might interfere with the video transmission that is going on during the race.

Oh motorists, for you OWN safety and others too, please do not to stop along the affected roads during this F1 Road Closure in Singapore 2010, be cooperative to the traffic advisory signboards, obey the directions given by Traffic Police officers and the auxiliary that are on duty.


If you take Public Transport, there will be a free bridgeing bus service connecting City Hall and Bugis MRT stations to the Marina Centre area. Public bus services travelling through the Padang and Marina Centre area will be diverted. All pedestrian underpasses as well as existing overhead bridges in the area will remain open. 
All MRT services will run until 1am from Friday, 24th September 2010 to Sunday, 26th September 2010.

If you are taking taxi, you can ask the taxi driver to go into Marina Centre area to pick up and drop off at the taxi stands. If you drive, please plan your journey in advance. Please refer to the maps on the LTA website: at www.lta.gov.sg.


Hope you would not be too affected by the F1 Road Closure in Singapore 2010.
