Punggol Road[edit]

Punggol Road is a road in Punggol, Singapore; that is used to go from Upper Serangoon Road to Punggol Road End, where it is the only road to go to Punggol till Sengkang and Punggol had been developed much later which is after 1995. Upper Serangoon Road was extended to Sengkang East Drive as well.

A section of Punggol Road has walked into history in late August 2018. The pedestrianisation project will convert the 1.3km-long stretch of the road, between Punggol Drive and Ponggol Seventeenth Avenue, into a heritage trail which can also be utilised for jogging and cycling.

In the sixties, basic public amenities such as electricity supply, pipped water, street lights and metalled roads were introduced, through both government and gotong royong efforts, to the areas along Punggol Road.

Further improvements to Punggol Road were implemented in 1983 for better road safety. The long and narrow road had been plagued by high accident rates due to dim street lights and reckless overtaking by drivers.

Several measures taken were the installation of high pressure sodium vapour lamps, using of highly visible thermoplastic paint for lane markings, and the implementation of double white lines.
