According to Singapore Street Names (4th Edition)1, Stevens Road was named after E.S. Stevens, who was the Assistant Superintendent of the Indian Police Force in 1881. He brought in the first contingent of Sikhs to serve in the police force. On the northern end of Stevens Road is Stevens Bridge, which crosses the canal between Bukit Timah Road and Dunearn Road.
Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
