SINGAPORE – Motorists heading towards Loyang Avenue are advised to allow more travel time or take alternative routes, as two lanes will be closed at least until the morning of Sept 4 for repair works following a water pipe leak.

“Emergency repair works will be carried out overnight, with two lanes closed between Blk 149 and the Pasir Ris Drive 1 junction,” said Pasir Ris-Changi GRC MP Valerie Lee in a Facebook post at about 5.50pm on Sept 3.

The works are expected to be completed by the morning of Sept 4.

National water agency PUB identified the leak along Loyang Avenue towards Changi, near Pasir Ris Block 149, in the afternoon, she said, adding that the incident would not disrupt water supply.

There were no details on the cause of the water pipe leak.

Lee said the closure may cause further congestion and delays on Loyang Avenue, which is already experiencing heavy traffic during the evening peak period.

To help manage the situation, the Land Transport Authority will monitor traffic conditions and adjust signal timings if needed.

PUB will also be deploying additional resources to manage the traffic.

The Straits Times has contacted PUB for more information.

新加坡——由于水管泄漏导致两条车道至少封闭至9月4日上午进行维修，前往洛阳大道的驾车人士请预留更多出行时间或选择其他路线。

“紧急维修工程将于夜间进行，第 149 座组屋和巴西立 1 道路口之间的两条车道将封闭，”巴西立-樟宜集选区议员李慧玲于 9 月 3 日下午 5 点 50 分左右在 Facebook 上发帖称。

预计工程将于9月4日上午完工。

她说，国家水务局（PUB）下午在洛阳大道靠近巴西立第149座组屋附近发现了一处漏水点，并补充说，该事件不会影响供水。

目前尚不清楚水管漏水的具体原因。

李表示，封路可能会导致洛阳大道交通进一步拥堵和延误，该路段在晚高峰时段已经交通拥堵严重。

为帮助控制交通状况，陆路交通管理局将监测交通状况，并在必要时调整信号灯时间。

PUB还将部署额外资源来管理流量。
