Hooray, the Brickland Road extention is finally opened on Sunday, 10th June 2007. After the construction commenced more than a year ago, it's finally done! It cuts short travelling time from my house to Bukit Batok area by a lot since it's a straight route with no traffic lights apart from the lights at either ends of the extention.
Yesterday I went for a run for the first time on this new road, from one end to another and back. It is a real good place for running and cycling with not many people on the footpath. The road as reported on the news is approximately 2km, means that I ran about 4km(worst case scenario 3km). Think i ought to buy a bicycle soon.
Great, but everything comes with a price. It disconcerted the serenity that had always been around since I moved in when I was sec 1. The road sits on the outskirt of the forest just outside of my room's window. When I first moved in, it was quite scary to see the forest and listen to the howling winds in the night, especially after 'lights off', but soon I became used to it, and enjoyed the serenity. Now it's time to get used to the new environment.
