Yio Chu Kang eating houses to move out
By Lip Kwok Wai, Qiuyi Tan | Posted: 20 April 2012 2044 hrs
SINGAPORE: Three eating houses along Yio Chu Kang Road will have to move out next month, after residents said they've been causing traffic and parking problems in the area for years.
The Urban Redevelopment Authority said it has received numerous complaints since December 2008.
The affected tenants are a prata shop, a shop selling taiwanese porridge and a seafood restaurant.
The shops attract some 300 customers daily.
Residents have complained of illegal parking, and although stall owners have put in measures like a valet parking service, authorities said this did not fully solve the problem.
Stall owners filed an appeal last year to stay on, but were rejected.
NS Rajah, owner of The Prata House, said: "I've got people who've studied at Rosyth School... They come back to The Prata House after 20 years, saying they want to reminisce the old times. It saddens me to think that we have to go."
Francis Ng, owner of House of Seafood @ 180, said: "We have about 28 workers, where are they going to locate to?"
