The Singapore Cycling Federation (SCF) organised the OCBC Cycle National Championship, Individual Time Trial (Road) at Tanah Merah Coast Road on Sunday 10 July 2022. The Individual Time Trial (ITT) is raced over 40-50 km (at the UCI World Championships and Olympic Games). The riders set off individually at regular intervals (1 minute). The competitor completing the course in the fastest time is the winner.

The race took place at the Loyang/Changi Coast area, consisting of 10.6km laps around Changi Coast Road, which connects to Aviation Park Road and Tanah Merah Coast Road. The first group of riders commenced the race at 6.30 am, and the last group of riders started at 2.00 pm. There was intermittent rain which caused the event to be paused momentarily, and racing resumed at 12.00 pm.
