On 11 October 2024, a section of Hougang Avenue 3 will be closed off temporarily to traffic from 1:45am to 5:00am. The closed section of the road will be between the road junctions of Defu Avenue 1/ Hougang Avenue 3 and Lorong Ah Soo/ Hougang Avenue 3.

2 The temporary road closure is to facilitate the construction of a new pedestrian overhead bridge, which is estimated to be completed in 1Q 2025. The new bridge will provide more convenient access to existing bus stops along Hougang Avenue 3 for residents of nearby housing developments, such as Paya Lebar Lodge and the upcoming Hougang Olive, Hougang Citrine, and Tanjong Tree Residences @ Hougang.

3 During the road closure, motorists traveling along Hougang Ave 3 towards Lorong Ah Soo, Tampines Road and Bartley Road East/ Airport Road / Eunos Link, are advised to use an alternative route along Defu Lane 10 and Defu Avenue 1.
