CTE Exit 8B temporarily closed on seven mornings in June and July for new pedestrian-cycling bridge
On seven early mornings throughout the months of June and July, the Central Expressway (CTE) (City-bound) Exit 8B to Upper Serangoon Road will be closed.
The temporary closure is meant to facilitate the construction of a new bridge for pedestrians and cyclists across the Pan Island Expressway (PIE).
According to a media release from the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA), the new bridge will enhance connectivity between Potong Pasir and Bendemeer as part of the Bishan-to-City Links project.

Meanwhile, the slip road from CTE (City-bound) Exit 8B to PIE (Changi-bound) will remain open.
