In British English, should the two "at's" be replaced by "in"?

Lee’s white Maserati was found at Cedar Avenue near Upper Aljunied Road later that night. Hours later, Lee was arrested in an HDB flat at Geylang Bahru Road.

The following day, he was charged with causing grievous hurt by committing a rash act. The punishment for this offence is up to four years’ jail and/or a fine of up to S$10,000.

In British English, should the two "at's" be replaced by "in"?

Thanks.

'At' or 'in' would both be understood in British English, but 'at' would be considered unusual. 'In' would be the usual choice for street/road names.
