1. The Land Transport Authority will be converting a short stretch of Handy Road between Orchard Road and Penang Road to two-way traffic on Thursday, 27 August 2009 at 10am.

2. Currently, as the stretch of Handy Road only allows for one way traffic, motorists travelling along Stamford Road have to make a longer detour via Buyong Road and Orchard Road before they are able to turn into Handy Road. With the conversion to two-way traffic, motorists travelling along Stamford Road will now have a direct access to Handy Road.

3. Please refer to the Annex A for the location map.

4. Motorists are advised to drive carefully when approaching the traffic junction and to observe traffic signal. During the initial phases of the conversion, traffic wardens will be deployed on site to help and guide motorists.

5. Should motorists have any queries, they can contact the LTA hotline at 1800-CALL LTA.
