SINGAPORE - A total of 22 bus services will be affected by road closures for the OCBC Cycle 2023 event on May 7.

This will last from the start of bus operations to 11am, said SBS Transit in a statement on May 2.

The following bus services will be affected: 10, 11, 14/14A, 16, 31, 32, 33, 48, 56, 57, 70M, 100, 111, 130, 131, 133, 158, 162M, 186, 196, 400 and 502.

Service 400 will commence operations later, from 9.30am on May 7.

Service 48 will be diverted from its regular route from the start of bus operations to 9.45am. However, no bus stops will be skipped, said SBS Transit.

The OCBC Cycle event will feature in-person participation for all categories for the first time since 2019, with

more than 7,000 participants

expected for this edition. During the Covid-19 pandemic, the event was fully virtual, where participants cycled the required distances on their own.

In-person cycling returned in 2022. However, only two categories – the 2,000-strong City Ride and Speedway Championships – featured in-person races then.

Billed as Singapore’s largest mass cycling event since 2009, the annual OCBC Cycle is sanctioned by the Singapore Cycling Federation and supported by Sport Singapore.
