Jalan Ismail Sultan heading towards Stulang will be fully closed to all vehicles nightly until July 16. The closure is meant to facilitate construction works under the Rapid Transit System (RTS) Link project.

According to RTS Operations Pte Ltd (RTSO), the affected stretch lies after the traffic light junction near the Customs, Immigration and Quarantine (CIQ) Complex and the R&F Mall area, close to the GBW Hotel.

The closure will take place every night from 10PM to 5AM, with construction expected to last for seven hours each night throughout the period.

To ease traffic flow, a contraflow will be activated periodically along Jalan Ismail Sultan heading towards the city centre. This will allow vehicles coming from the CIQ and R&F area and heading to Stulang to use the opposite lane as a temporary route.
