Nicoll Highway, two stretches of highway road linked by Merdeka Bridge, is located in the central region of Singapore. In the mid-1950s, this highway with a bridge-link was a very necessary new artery from the city to the east-side of Singapore Island, built to alleviate frequent traffic jams on the often congested Geylang and Kallang Roads during peak hours in the early 1950s. Named after former Governor of Singapore Sir John Nicoll, Nicoll Highway and its linking Merdeka Bridge were declared open by Chief Minister Lim Yew Hock, amid much ceremony on 17 August 1956.
