SINGAPORE - Work has begun on converting a venue for the original Singapore Grand Prix to cater to more leisurely pursuits, later than initially planned.
The National Parks Board (NParks) is turning a 3km stretch of Old Upper Thomson Road - a winding two-way road where racing cars roared in the 1960s and early 1970s - into a one-way street to accommodate a new park connector.
