Foul stench from Bayshore apartment leads to grisly find - the bodies of a father and son http://www.straitstimes.com/news/singapore/courts-crime/story/foul-stench-bayshore-apartment-leads-grisly-find-the-bodies-father SINGAPORE - The decomposed bodies of two men were found in a unit at The Bayshore condominium Wednesday morning, after neighbours complained of a foul smell. The bodies of a 61-year-old man and a 40-year old man, believed to be father and son, were found on a sofa in the living room. A maid living in the condominium near East Coast Park told Chinese evening daily Shin Min Daily News that there had been a stench for the past week . "Even though the windows were closed, the smell remained in the air," she said. Unable to tolerate the smell any more, neighbours complained to the condominium management, who called the police and Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF). The SCDF confirmed that they sent a Red Rhino vehicle and an ambulance after receiving a call for help at a building along Bayshore Road. A police spokesman said: "On arrival, two men were found motionless. They were pronounced dead by paramedics on scene." The police have classified the deaths as unnatural and are investigating. -

I have been using this exit to ECP every morning, this is opposite the Esso station, The slip road is wide enough for 2 cars abreast though it's a single lane. No problem even with buses. Thus I feedback in early april to raise this concern of heavy usage during the morning peak hours. I have observed those that used this lane daily will understand how others will drive, however, those that may not be familiar to this stretch will not realise some drivers will just also drive from right lane to the left slip road and requested a widen slip road to officially make this into a two lane slip road like Lornie road, Marine Parade road to ECP etc. LTA has replied on the 9 May to inform they will widen the road to improve a better traffic flow in a more regulated manner. Do you all agree with such changes?
