Who manages road closures?
In the UK, local councils or Highways England manage road closures, but in Singapore, it's the Land Transport Authority (LTA). They're responsible for planning and implementing changes to traffic flow, like those for the Grand Prix, ensuring public safety and minimising disruption by coordinating with event organisers and emergency services.
