Parking: Before and After



The service road from our service apartment to the main road is always congested in the morning. A few like us leave an hour early to avoid it. Some of the longer staying or permanent residents in other apartment blocks park their vehicles on this road which leads to a construction site. This help them to avoid the morning rush. As the traffic situation is so bad, some drive in the opposite direction and than make a U-turn over the curb as you can see above. Reminds me of Singapore in the 70s.




A few days ago, the authorities put a stop to this illegal parking. "No Parking" signs now guard the entrance or perhaps exit of this road. I wonder if anyone would quietly come and remove the signs at night. This would be very interesting to watch.

Coming sunday, we will revert to normal timings because Ramadan is over. I was told that the traffic should improve as a result because during Rmadan, the school and work hours coincide.
