After some four months of closure for renovation works and delays caused by Covid-19, supper haven Bedok 85 will be back on June 17, 2020.
On a Facebook post on June 3, Member of Parliament (MP) for Fengshan Cheryl Chan said the Block 85 Market and Food Centre has received approval for resumption of renovation works.
Reopening on June 17
The market and food centre, also known as Bedok 85 will reopen on June 17, 2020.
The renovations were initially slated to take place from Feb. 10 to April 17, but the reopening was pushed back in light of the Covid-19 situation.
Chan said that authorities are working closely with stakeholders in preparation for the resumption of business and that the use of SafeEntry and other requirements will be in place as a safety measure.
Chan said that more information will be provided soon.
She is seeking the cooperation of the public to abide by the safety measures, ensuring the hawkers can continue their business safely while the health of the public is protected.
The return of Bedok 85 will be a boon for Bedok residents, as food options have been more limited this Covid-19 pandemic.
