PUB clears river sludge along Robertson Quay By Jinny Koh, TODAY | Posted: 27 May 2008 0952 hrs Photos 1 of 1 SINGAPORE: The air along Robertson Quay has finally been cleared. And the source of the offending stench a 1m-thick layer of sludge lining the bed of the Singapore River has been removed, giving the area a breath of fresh air. The years of muck that lined a 50m stretch of riverbed could have been due to dead leaves, litter and silt discharged from nearby worksites, especially after rain, said a PUB officer during a media briefing at the quayside on Monday. The sludge fronting the Red House at The Quayside had been assailing the nostrils of visitors, patrons and tenants for the last three months. And while the PUB assured that the air is clean again, the agency would

Last week, I saw on news that Malaysia may reduce the toll charge to help people cope with inflation. This week: Five new ERP gantries to go up in S'pore River area Ministry says retailers should not worry. -ST Maria Almenoar Sun, May 11, 2008 The Straits Times WHEN an Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) cordon went up around the Orchard Road area in 2005, there were concerns not just from motorists but from retailers as well. These businesses were worried that the move would drive customers away. The Government's counter: The measures were necessary to keep up the buzz of the area as traffic had slowed down to 15kmh on Orchard Road. Not everyone was convinced, but the gantries went up and ERP hours were extended to Saturdays and for an hour more on weekdays. The aim: To discourage motorists from using the shopping belt as a way of getting to other destinations, such as Marina Bay and Suntec City. Three years on, a study has shown that vehicles have indeed been able to move along faster. Traffic speeds went up to 25kmh and have since stabilised at an average of 23kmh; the volume of traffic has shrunk by 20 per cent. And the retailers have stopped complaining - shoppers are still making their way to the strip. Orchard Road Business Association spokesman Stephen Goh noted that the cordon had noticeably reduced the amount of pass-through traffic on weekday afternoons. 'The overall effect is something positive because what we are left with are the 'real shoppers', not people just using the road to get elsewhere.'

This year 1st time went to check out River Hong Bao after missing it for so many years. Discovered more by-standers especially around the rides. Found it out the likely reason when I check out the cost of the rides. 1 token = $2.50. Average ride cost 3 tokens A ballon cost $4-$12 No wonder many of my kakis went overseas while I came back to celebrate CNY Guess it will be worse as days goes by unless one works in the civil service.

I thought i will only encounter these in Little India, not in a neighbourhood estate. Not refering to any races. Some of them had problem understanding on how to cross the road. I felt like a crocodile moving and waiting slowly along a river and these buggers are like animals trying to make a dash across the rivers about 2m away from me. Normally, i have see cars e-brake to avoid 1 or 2 animal, but never in my life to see at least 3 cars e-brake together to avoid at least a bunch of animals.. and all three are moving at around 50 only.. Oh yeah, the circle things are the animals, and the rectangle are us
