Grab. Seriously, just use Grab. It's like Uber but, you know, way more prevalent in Singapore. It'll navigate you perfectly, even through those crazy little roads. Plus, you'll be air-conditioned and less likely to encounter monkey business. It's so much easier than messing with public transport for a place like Pasir Panjang, especially if you're not familiar with the area. You could try taxis, but they are often more expensive and can be harder to hail down. Save the stress for the wedding, not the journey.

Yeah, the Benjamin Sheares Bridge path is tiny. I've almost gotten wiped out there a few times myself. Weekdays, super early mornings (like before 6am) or late evenings (after 9pm) are probably your best bet for fewer people. Weekends are a total nightmare, avoid those if you can. It's a great view, though, worth the slight risk of death by runner.
