Jurong Town Hall Road
Jurong Town Hall Road is a road in Jurong East, Singapore that connects the Pan Island Expressway and Ayer Rajah Expressway. It was built in 1969 through Jalan Bahru Selatan so that Route 143 could connect to the Jurong Road 10-milestone market. It was named after the Jurong Town Hall, built between May 1971 and March 1974 as the headquarters for the Jurong Town Corporation (now JTC Corporation) which had been formed in June 1968 to develop and manage industrial estates in Jurong.[1]
Currently, Jurong Town Hall and the new headquarters of JTC Corporation, The JTC Summit, have addresses on Jurong Town Hall Road. Chinese Garden MRT Station, JCube and the Science Centre are nearby.
