WHY TAKE THE SHUTTLE:
A section of the race course is along the gravel Bahtera Track. This section can generate a lot of dust from passing cars. Additionally, too many cars cause congestion for runners on the track, it is not safe for racers or volunteers, AND there is limited parking at the venue. CONCLUSION: the shuttle bus is much more convenient and the best option to arrive and depart the venue;-)
Sarimbun Scout Camp is situated in the beautiful, lush and densely treed northern part of the island. It is a remote, raw and wild location - rarely visited by the public. On Race Day, we strongly encourage all runners to take public transportation, carpool or ride share to the venue. Parking will be very limited.
It can be tricky securing a taxi/Grab/GoJek from Sarimbun Scout Camp given the remote nature of the venue.
To ensure a stress-free, easy and smooth race-day process for our runners, we have arranged shuttle bus services departing every 60 minutes from Kranji MRT starting from 05.00am. The bus ride from Kranji MRT to Sarimbun Scout Camp will take ~20-30 minutes. You can also book a seat on the bus back to Kranji MRT after your race is done.
Due to safe distancing requirements, the bus is a 40-seater, but we can only have 29 passengers per vehicle.
You will not be allowed to enter the venue or register for your race more than 30 minutes prior to your start time.
Please factor in travel time to the venue when reserving your slot on the bus.
For example:
Your race start is 11am. Please arrive at the venue no earlier than 10.30am.
In this case, we would suggest booking the 10am shuttle from Kranji MRT.
Likewise, if you think you will finish your run in 1 hour, please book the 12.30pm shuttle back to Kranji MRT.
Don't forget - NO spectators, and you will not be allowed to 'hang around' after the event. There will be a shuttle waiting area outside the race venue.
Thanks for your understanding!
