Hoot Kiam Road, SingaporeHoot Kiam Road is a one-way road in Singapore. It separates River Valley from Tanglin. The road connects Zion Road, at the intersection with River Valley Road, in the south, to Paterson Hill, at the intersection of Grange Road, in the north. Hoot Kiam Road pairs with Irwell Road, which is another one-way road but in the opposite direction.
