After a two-year hiatus, Formula One is back in Singapore with the Singapore Grand Prix! These are the list of roads that will be closed for the upcoming race.

With the COVID-19 pandemic having the globe on edge for the past two years, events with large crowds have had to be put on the back burner so as to allow for social distancing and unnecessary spreading of the virus. Formula One was an unfortunate victim of COVID-19, leading to the Singapore Grand Prix to not be held in 2020 and 2021.

But now that restrictions have eased, the night race will be taking place! The Singapore Grand Prix will take place from Friday, 30 September to Sunday, 2 October at the Marina Bay Street Circuit. Leading up to the race weekend, roads around the Marina Bay area will be closed, starting from 12:01am on Wednesday, 28 September to allow organisers to set up the roads for the race.

All affected roads will be progressively reopened after the race, and all roads will be fully accessible again by 5.30am on Tuesday, 4 October. Some of the closed roads will be reopened during peak hours in order to facilitate peak hour traffic.

Taxis will be able to access the single lane at all times, except when the race is taking place on 1 and 2 October. Traffic marshals will be on site to direct traffic and pedestrians, while the carparks at Suntec City, Millennia Walk and Marina Square will remain open.

MRT service hours will be extended between 30 September and 2 October. The last train will depart City Hall MRT station at 12.30am on 30 September and 1 October, and at 12.45am on 2 October. The operating hours for selected feeder bus services will also be extended to match the last train services.

The public and F1 ticket holders are encouraged to use public transport to get to the Marina Centre and Padang between 28 September and 3 October 2022. Taxis are also available as an additional option.
