[Microsoft]

And how is the hike gonna helps in better manage high demand??



Revised night charges for URA and HDB carparks

NIGHT parking charges at HDB and URA carparks will increase from S$2 to S$4 starting November 1 to better manage the higher demand.

The changes will apply to carparks with the Night Parking Scheme (NPS), which provides overnight parking facilities for non-resident motorists and visitors.

"Currently, most NPS carparks are heavily utilised due to higher parking demand," said URA and HDB in a statement.


"This has resulted in residents with Season Parking Ticket (SPT) facing difficulties in getting a parking space when they return home at night."

The new charges will help "safeguard the interests of SPT holders," they said.

The current night parking half-hourly charge for areas without the NPS will remain at S$0.50.

The new S$4 night parking coupons will be available for sale from October 15. Motorists holding the S$2 night parking coupons can continue to use them by displaying two S$2 coupons.

I think they plugging up loopholes. Owners of cars who need to drive to work park at work place. If overnight parking is $2 , taking away the Sundays, its only less than $50 a month. The season parking cost at least $75. There is an "imbalance"

I m not sure bout tis but i guess not much ppl will do that...If u park at workplace, u nid to take public transport to and from home...tat cost alone offset whatever you had save...not to mention longer time spend on transportation every day...

Too much coe released perhaps...n now they r caught off guard again...

If, by increasing the price or fees is the only solution to solve all the problems (ERP, MRT, public transport, parking fees, etc...) we don't need to pay multi-million dollars for these idiotic ministers. My 5 years old niece can do the job.

Hahaha, the way Halimah Yacoob made it sound when interviewed
on radio was as if they are helping the residents.

Residents with season parking cannot find carpark, so the parking charges
were increased and it was hoped that this will solve the problem.

Not enough car park, up the charges.
Not enough housing, up the price.

In future, not enough food, up the price as well.

The people deserve the government they voted for.

PAP is so confident that they can dump anything on Singaporeans
nowadays without any fear of a backlash from voters.

We all know this is not about solving the car park problem.... not at all... And i agree with you.. this seems like a prelude to season parking raising as well...
