To facilitate the construction of a vehicular platform from the existing SGH Emergency Department to the new Emergency Medicine Building, temporary road closure along Hospital Crescent will take effect on weekends, every Saturday from 2pm to 5am on Monday.
The footpath from Jalan Bukit Merah leading to SingHealth Tower/OCH /SGH Block 3 will also be closed to all pedestrians for safety reasons.
Look out for signage to guide drivers and pedestrians on alternative routes.
Driving to SGH and national specialty centres on SGH Campus will be through three separate, non-connecting routes. This is to improve traffic flow and ease congestion in preparation for future campus developments.
There is no changes to the pedestrian walkways.
Here's an overview of the routes (Orange, Blue and Purple) and where the carparks are located.

A destination-based road network allows motorists to get to specific destinations directly and in a shorter time, instead of having to make a loop through SGH Campus. This road network change will help traffic flow and ease any congestion that may arise with various on-going construction works on SGH Campus.
There will not be any major road network changes on SGH Campus within the next 5 years.
