Serangoon Road, Singapore

Serangoon Road, Singapore (26 July 2017)

Serangoon Road is a major road in Singapore. It connects with Selegie Road in the southwest, at the intersection with Bukit Timah Road and Sungei Road, and with Upper Serangoon Road, in the northeast, at the intersection with Jalan Toa Payoh and the Pan Island Expressway.

Serangoon Road is one of the older roads of Singapore. Cutting through Singapore's Little India, it began as a dirt path in the early 19th century. Over time, the road was lengthened, reaching the Serangoon River in 1927.¹. It is not clear how Serangoon Road got its name, but theories abound. Even the Serangoon River was renamed from the original Rangoon River.

Serangoon Road is located in Singapore Postal District 08.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
