Kurty Supercharged July 3, 2012 Share July 3, 2012 Park at Barrage, walk to the Gardens, then use overhead (from Dragonfly Bridge) link bridge to MBS (you be crossing ECP), from MBS walk to the Waterfront Promenade and sit there to watch fireworks, or if you are early can watch the RSAF aerial display at about 6.30-7pm. that mean i got to be there early. any idea what time for firework? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TVT Supercharged July 3, 2012 Share July 3, 2012 that mean i got to be there early. any idea what time for firework? My advise is for you to park at Wilson open space car park beside MBS, that place after 1pm on Sat is $1.20 per hour only. The Barrage car park, or Gardens car park is expected to be full. The road going in there may be jam as well. From Wilson car park, you could walk the overhead bridge to Gardens easily.... and back for the fireworks! Fireworks should be around 8pm... but better be there at 7.30pm to standby and also chop for a good seat/view! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taipan49 3rd Gear July 3, 2012 Share July 3, 2012 Bro, the distance you mentioned is not short leh... better think twice. Also the link from Golf Club to Barrage is under some kind of construction or renovation (at the end of the park towards the dam). During the day it is open and public can access, but night time it is closed and locked-up... someone told me this! Gate open from 7am to 7pm to cross from Marina Barrage into Bay East Gardens. Also at the Bay East Gardens there is gantry for parking, don't know the charges though, will check the next time i ride past on the way to work. But never anyone there. Marina Barrage parking fills up quickly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bay East Gardens parking is $0.50 per 30mins, using ERP gantry style parking. I have been there twice...its a very nice park with a good view of the CBD area, MBS, Flyer and Gardens By The Bay (Bay South) Its quite deserted probably due to its far-in distance from any main road, and no public transport to go in. Most users of this park are residents of the Tanjong Rhu area condos. Seriously if my friend didn't bring me there a month ago, I also didn't even know of this Bay East park.

Yeah lots of Tanjong Rhu residents use. I think they are waiting for the MCE construction to finish before developing/promoting it further as it could potentially link up with East Coast Park.

Evillusion Supersonic July 3, 2012 Share July 3, 2012 i was there last december for a sneak preview of the garden. Very nice especially if u bring ur pah toh or your family. That time parking was free and the carpark was a thumbs up as it is an underground carpark. Too bad the temperate enclosure was under construction then!

TVT Supercharged July 3, 2012 Share July 3, 2012 May I ask if the park is free or there is an entry charges? From news source, seem like there is an entry charges! Got to pay to enter the observatories (the 2 big "shell") - $20 per adult. Also pay $5 to walk on the OCBC skybridge.... Other parts of the Garden is free entry.

Aventador 6th Gear July 3, 2012 Share July 3, 2012 Does anyone know if it is near to park at MBS itself and walk over to the Gardens? assuming you have old folks with you? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TVT Supercharged July 3, 2012 Share July 3, 2012 Does anyone know if it is near to park at MBS itself and walk over to the Gardens? assuming you have old folks with you? It is just directly opposite MBS. There's a overhead bridge linking MBS directly to the Gardens. But you should be aware that parking in MBS is not cheap....

Hulk 1st Gear July 3, 2012 Share July 3, 2012 Parking Rates For Cars: From 05:00 AM - 06:00 PM $0.025 per minute for the 1st five hours, = $1.50/hr and $0.05 per minute thereafter From 06:00 PM - 02:00 AM $0.02 per minute for the 1st five hours, = $1.20/hr and $0.04 per minute thereafter For Motorcycles: From 05:00 AM - 02:00 AM $1.20 per entry Note: All parking rates are exclusive of GST. OK, I admit I'm cheapskate and always look for free parking. Question, possible to park at Marina Barrage then walk over?? Actually $1.50/h is not that exp considering parking at such place. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
