Height Barrier At Link Road : Soil Mound Constructed at Road Shoulder


A mound constructed of soil placed next to height barrier


This mound will deter lorries from entering the link road to throw rubbish

On Jan 15 2009, we highlighted that the height barrier got repaired and strengthened. It had been knocked by lorries who went into the link road to illegally throw rubbish. The few concrete slabs placed by MPSJ on the road shoulder (adjacent to the height barrier) were also moved to the side by those recalcitrant lorries.

Working closely with MPSJ, JKP Zone 16 have asked MPSJ to place a mound constructed of soil at the road shoulder. On Jan 20 2009, the mound was placed at the road shoulder in order to prevent lorries from entering the link road. It is our fervent hope that the repaired height barrier and mound will deter lorries from entering the link road to illegally dump rubbish.

Comments most welcome.
