Schneider79 Clutched September 4, 2009 Share September 4, 2009 At last found some time and meet friends in ION Orchard and so wanted to park there. The entrance of the carpark is design to have only a right turn from the Orchard Turn only. If I come in from Orchard Boulevard, I cannot do a left turn to turn into the carpark. I need to pass the stupid ERP gantry, make a U-turn at the taxi stand in order to enter the carpark. $1.00 lost for 5 seconds in ERP zone. This is bullsh!t and it's a conspiracy! ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have to do this. There is another entrance direct fr Orchard Blvd...just a few metres down. No need to enter Orchard Turn at all.

No need to enter Orchard Turn at all. Yes, this is correct. When I went there the first time, I also didn't know and ended up paying ERP. But the ERP is nothing compared to the carpark charges. That one is scary. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed that that part u mentioned cannot turn left into carpark, i notice vehicles coming out cannot turn right hence they need to turn left and go through ERP as well lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kusje Supersonic September 4, 2009 Share September 4, 2009 Speaking of ERP charges and carparks, I like Cathay's carpark in the morning :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbonetics 2nd Gear September 4, 2009 Share September 4, 2009 you can park at Wheellock and walk through the underpass to ION Orchard. yes park at wheelock can lead to Ion directly and no need to pay ERP too. but i suspect sooner or later,there might be a new gantry. just like last time when the cathay building was newly open.
