shootmie 0 Report post Posted February 12, 2008 tinyeyes, i agree. Sometimes when i turn left into our estate, than at the same time got a car coming out from the multi-storey carpark side. Can be quite dangerous if not alert enough. Now still okie becoz occupancy rate not that high. I can't imagine when everyone move in that time. Probably that's the problem with only 1 entrance. Shootmie, i think it's quite cramp to have 1 but no harm asking for suggestions from yr ID.but pre-fab bathroom can put bathroom mah?The instruction manual for the pre-fab bathrm that was given by the hdb states can put in long bath. Should be can la.. Still looking around for an ID.. Not rushing to move in yet but a bit wasted right.. already paid the 3 months conservancy charges... but not even staying there..

Commando 0 Report post Posted February 12, 2008 ya i realise that if we take taxi to our estatehave to make sure that the taxi uncle go by Jalan boon Lay, turn left to the temple and than turn left again to St 64. Cannot come by other way if not, have to make U-turn.This thing can feedback to who? Our area got RC 1 or not? Hahahah, we should all join and ask our MP fight for it!Yah. if the taxi gets caught doing illegal u-turn, your taxi fare goes up. If the taxi makes legal u-turn, your taxi fare still go up. I think I will feedback to LTA. Need to chk which is the right channel. I heard from my colleague that a request was made to open a gap at some bukit timah area because making a u-turn during peak hours can be a killer. The gap now has saved the drivers 15mins! commando, u submitted early last wk rite? have they called u?Yup I submitted early last week. On the spot, they asked me to select a date from a list and i took PM leave to meet the HDB officer + contractor. They have started work (should be yesterday) because the defective tiles have been removed and placed neatly in two canvas bags outside the house. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alexter 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2008 I think the U-turn is better then the direct rights turn out. Yesterday I did the u-turn there, when the turn light is green, the vehicle on the right junction will turn left too.Hence a bit dangerous, hope the LTA can allow the U-turn there.we should go to see the MP about this.

If don apply electricity and water, i duno if the contractors can carry out rectification works without power for their tools and water for the cement. And not sure if hdb may backdate and charge?
