School kids slip and fall in heavy floods

STOMPer Sylvester saw school children slipping and falling into drains because of the heavy flood at Bukit Timah today (Nov 19). He says:

"This is the flood at King's, Prince and Coronation Road at Bukit Timah.

"The flood was heaviest during after school hours where many students had to navigate their way through murky water.

"The murky water caused some students to fall into the drains.

"Also, many parents in their vehicles braced the flood waiting for their kids and many of these vehicles stalled because of the flood.

"This flooding occurs in this area during the year end rainy season."

Flood affects other stretches along Bukit Timah

A STOMPer sent in pictures of severe flooding along other parts of Bukit Timah Road, adding to the many accounts STOMP has received from other STOMPers.

Some of these took place along Jalan Haji Alias.

STOMPer Bertrand also witnessed flooding along Bukit Timah Road. He says:

"Took place this afternoon at about 2 plus."

The STOMPer sent in photos which show motorists getting out in the heavy rain to push their vehicles.

Another STOMPer and Bukit Timah resident, Raymond, says:

"I happened to return home at about 1pm. It was already drizzling.

"The downpour came around 1.30pm. All of a sudden the drain outside my house along Jalan Haji Alias overflowed with water rushing onto the main road.

"There was a bit of chaos because of the construction works to widen the drain.

"The overflowed water caused the dustbins and construction barriers to float out of place. Construction workers were frantically moving them to higher ground.

"There were civil defence vehicles moving towards Coronation Road West (and I heard from my friends today that they were there to help residents carry young children out of the flooded areas).

"I have been residing here for 20 years now and this is the first time that we have experienced such a situation.

"The first thing that crossed my mind was to unplug the switch for the main gate as the water was already covering the wires of the auto gate.

"I was helping the construction workers move some of the construction road barriers. It was quite dangerous as the barriers were floating towards the centre of the road.

"At about 2.30pm, the overflowed water on the road subsided and I managed to drive back to office around 3.30pm, avoiding the mass traffic jam around the area."
