Darthrevan Supercharged March 25, 2012 Share March 25, 2012 It is Friday night and Serangoon Garden is a motorist's nightmare. A never-ending stream of cars head for the popular enclave of eating joints and watering holes. Drivers honk and patience thins as they jostle for limited carpark spaces. The compact centre of the middle-class housing estate is packed with 18 restaurants, coffee shops and a fast-food outlet, as well as the popular Chomp Chomp and Serangoon Garden hawker centres. On a busy night, car valet Adi, 45, parks up to 20 cars of patrons of Pow Sing chicken rice eatery. 'Weekends are the worst,' he says. Resident S.L. Chan, a businesswoman in her 40s, says she avoids driving near the roundabout during dinner time at the weekend. 'The congestion is already bad. Impatient drivers and illegally parked cars make it worse,' she said. Acting on residents' complaints, the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) imposed a ban last month: No more Serangoon Garden shophouses can be turned into food joints. source: http://www.straitstimes.com/BreakingNews/S...ory_781481.html ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChickenMob 6th Gear March 25, 2012 Share March 25, 2012 Its because those guys there wants to make their life simple. when we complain that there are not enough parking lots at night when we come home, the solution for them is not to increase carpark space but they increase the night parking charges ...WTF?? there are still not enough lots at night.zzzzzzzzz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
