[quote=\"phankao\"]It was earlier in the year, lah. Not on 23rd.

O I C ... like that good lah, at least they can sleep more once a week. Hahaha

Not good for us at all. The road condition from Upper Bt Timah towards Dunearn Rd after 8am is terrible. PIE also slow moving.[/quote]This is freaking me out. I thought after 7.20am when NYGH, HCI & RGPS has started class, the road will be clear already ? No ?

What are the cars doing there ? Going to work ?

Yes.

Which direction are you coming from? Not the East side?

That's why I rather travel up to Boon Lay to take the MRT if I need to go downtown during those hours.

exit at Stevens Road from PIE will hit traffic congestion due to SCGS & ACS just along Dunearn Road there


exit at Adam Road and turn into Bukit Timah seems okay except for after 8am - terrible jam along Farrer due to some people avoiding ERP elsewhere and joining the Q along Farrer (but that is after school has started). However the traffic is heavy once turned right from Adam due to St Margarets Sec Sch, NYPS, & Hwa Chong…and those going to U-turn to NYGH / RGPS / NJC …imagine the volume and madness


I think it is better to exit at Eng Neo and turn left to NYGH / NJC / RGPS. Creative & kiasu parents can try those small roads just before Eng Neo turning into Dunearn … some of the small roads lead to NYGH & NJC - coming out from the housing estate instead of joining the jam from mainroad with all the anxieties of being late for school

Our friend, VitoRelax was lost inside the estate at his first attempt. I accompanied hubby once, not worth the effort since the road condition along Dunearn though slow moving was still bearable.

Actually if u look at the online map, or if your mobile phone has GPS, u can work that out. It is Vanda (road / drive)......link to Greenwood if going to NJC - come out from where Lana Cakeshop is; or Vanda - Linden : come out to where NYGH is (former NJC location)

Anyway if the traffic at Dunearn from Eng Neo is bearable, keep it simple

I tried to drive Vanda Rd to Greenwood Ave but round here & there, uphill & downhill, couldn't find a way thru.

So, fed up, I used the other way, I start from Greenwood & drive to Vanda Road. Then only I found out the way & drive the reverse back from Vanda to Greenwood.

Don't think it is worth the the drive unless there is a tree fallen on the road of Bkt Timah causing the traffic to halt to a standstill.

Just my opinion ...

As promised I drive there this morning. Good news to all driving NJC parents.


I start driving at 7.05am & reached NJC at 7.25am. There is no traffic whatsover at PIE, Eng Neo Ave or Bukit Timah Road. Driving was a breeze. I also reach office super early, cleaning lady & tea lady also not in yet. Hahahaha

I think it is bcos after 7.20am, all schools already started. When I drove past Nanyang, I can see the girls there already assembled outside the court.

But I am not sure on the actual day, how much traffic will be added from NJC driving parents bcos in this morning's trial run, I believe cars from NJC driving parents were not there.

I will try again tomoro morning & reach Eng Neo Ave earlier at say 7.00am to experience the jam first hand to see how bad it is !!

LOL, When I reached office this morning at 6.58am, the sun just coming up. HAHA. And quite likely I won't do the NJC run unless hubs not around.

Anyway, both of us like to get to office v early and have been doing that for years.
