JTC starts feasibility study on 2nd road link to Jurong Island
[SINGAPORE] JTC Corporation has launched a "planning feasibility and preliminary engineering study" on the planned second road link to Jurong Island.
The project will facilitate the daily commute of the fast-growing workforce on the petrochemicals island, and also provide an alternative access in case of emergencies, like in April 2012 when a natural gas pipeline leak caused a four-hour traffic shutdown to and from the island.
Asked for details, a JTC spokesman would say only that the study on the second link, launched this week, is "to cater to the increase in traffic demand, as well as to further enhance the business continuity, safety and security aspects for Jurong Island".
