Bye part of AYE, Hello MCE

Things change very quickly. One day we have part of the AYE (Ayer Rajah Expressway) cut off and traffic flows into the MCE (Marina Coastal Expressway).

The cut off when you are driving is so smooth, you don't know what happens until you reach the tunnel and get a shock. It was fun though as you drive through (provided you were not those who got stuck on the first few days)



If you are bored, go to take photos of the old highway before it's all gone.
It should be gone very quickly, maybe as I post this, this part of the old AYE is already gone.

The containers you see, it will be gone in a few years too. It's going to be posh living areas for those who can afford it.

East Coast Parkway Emergency Landing Runway

Was on the way with Momo to send off sis to the Airport. This is the East Coast Parkway (ECP as it's more commonly known).

It's common knowledge that this expressway is the most well maintained so that tourist who arrive from Changi Airport gets to see the most beautiful tree lines expressway. I think it's quite beautiful.



It's also common knowledge that this stretch of the expressway is also designed to be an emergency landing runway if needed. But thankfully it has never been used. The potted plants in the middle can be removed.

Will be missing sis.

Ayer Rajah Expressway in the early morning..

Last Friday, a group of us were in a chartered bus going for a retreat. This is a view of the Ayer Rajah Expressway taken from the back of the bus.



The traffic was still quite ok, as we were going out of the city towards the immigration checkpoint.

I am going off this weekend too to enjoy the long weekend. I am going off for holiday today after this post. Momo will be posting photos for the next few days. (Thanks!)

Have a Blessed Weekend everyone!
