Exit 8A on CTE to close for 5 hours on 5 days in May


PUBLISHED ONMay 07, 2026 2:41 AMBYSean LerIf you are a frequent user of the PIE (Tuas) exit on Central Expressway (CTE), do note that it will be temporarily closed on five days in May.
This closure is to facilitate ongoing bridge launching works for the new pedestrian-cum-cycling link across the Pan Island Expressway (PIE).
Exit 8A will be temporarily closed to traffic from 12am to 5am on the following dates:
This link is set to improve connectivity between Potong Pasir and Bendemeer as part of the Bishan-to-City Links project.
Similar closures, affecting Exit 8B, were made earlier on seven days between April and May for the same Bishan-to-City Links project.

In a news release on Thursday (May 7), the Urban Redevelopment Authority advised motorists travelling from the city-bound direction of CTE, to PIE (Tuas) or Lorong 6 Toa Payoh, to use Exit 7C towards Moulmein Road instead.
Motorists are advised to plan their routes in advance and to look out for directional signs.
