Upper Serangoon Road bus lane altered after feedback from residents<\/h3>\n

In a Facebook post on 6 Jan, Mr Yeo said many residents and drivers had raised concerns about congestion when turning left from Bidadari Park Drive onto Upper Serangoon Road.<\/p>\n

This is especially observed during peak hours, he added.<\/p>\n

Previously, cars making a left turn out of Bidadari Park Drive encountered only a short stretch of dotted bus lane before the leftmost lane became a continuous bus lane.<\/p>\n

It is illegal for most non-bus vehicles to use a bus lane during operation hours, but they may use dotted bus lanes to make a turn<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After \u201ccareful review of the traffic conditions\u201d, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) changed the Upper Serangoon Road bus lane between Bidadari Park Drive and Wan Tho Avenue into a dotted bus lane.<\/p>\n
