SINGAPORE – The Land Transport Authority will be taking steps to alleviate traffic congestion at the newly opened The Woodleigh Mall after residents at The Woodleigh Residences in the same mixed-use development voiced frustrations over long waits to enter the carpark during peak periods.
The frustrating wait has led some residents, who collected the keys to their new apartments three weeks ago, to cut the queues from the adjacent lane to get home quicker – much to the consternation of other drivers. A queue of about 15 to 20 cars had formed at around 7pm on Friday, when The Straits Times visited the mall. A sign informed visitors that the carpark was full and vehicles were allowed to enter only when others left the premises.
The development is bounded by Upper Aljunied Road, a heritage trail and Woodleigh MRT station. This means that access to the residents’ and public carparks can only be situated on the side of the development adjacent to Bidadari Park Drive, LTA said. Potong Pasir MP Sitoh Yih Pin told ST that his team had raised similar concerns about potential traffic issues in the area before the opening of the mall.
