LCK Road Diversion
-
I have always wondered...when the RSAF conduct their exercise and LCK Rd is closed, which means that the area north of Old LCK Rd is rendered practically inaccessible, what happens to Gedong camp?
No public transport, no 975, how?

to become runway for a day Saturday, November 29, 2008 10:03 [IST]
Singapore: First, there was F1. Now come the F-16s. After a Formula One (F1) Grand Prix auto race in September, Singapore streets on Sunday will see something even faster -- F-16 fighter bombers.
The jets and other military aircraft are to take off and land on a stretch of road which has been converted into an alternative runway, the Ministry of Defence said.
The exercise, which helps prepare the air force in case normal runways become unusable, hones its readiness "to deliver uninterrupted air power at all times," a statement said.
"The aircraft will be executing a series of take-offs and landings along a stretch of Lim Chu Kang Road, 2,500 metres long (1.6 miles) and 24 metres wide," the ministry said.
Singapore is an island nation of just 3.6 million citizens and permanent residents which was ejected from the Malaysian Federation in 1965 over ethnic issues.
The security-conscious city-state, one of Asia's wealthiest, also has one of the region's most modern armed forces. All able-bodied 18-year-old male citizens are eligible to be conscripted for two years of full-time active service in the military or emergency services.
Military planes and helicopters often roar over parts of the city on their way into and out of air bases.
"In war, runways are one of the key targets for the enemy," Colonel Tan Kah Han, who is overseeing the exercise, was quoted as saying in The Straits Times. The exercise will involve more than 10 aircraft including F-5 jets and E-2C early warning planes as well as F-16s, the defence ministry said.
Troops will set up a mobile control tower, lights, and cables to help stop the planes when they land, it said. The Straits Times reported that about 400 air force personnel have been removing lamp posts, road signs and bus shelters in preparation. The six-lane road on the far west of the island has been closed since Thursday and will reopen on Monday, it said.
This is the sixth exercise of its kind in the past 22 years, the ministry said.

Perhaps it is not like what you say like that.
The only 975-may-not-pass-by part is only the southern Lim Chu Kang rd off Old LCK Rd, so 975 may not pass by the rest of the roads after Old Choa Chu Kang Rd.
So scared for what?Lim Chu Kang there is already almost deserted if you see on google Earth or maps, except some farms and veggie, fish importing offices.
If you want to see, take Kranji Express and walk down Lim Chu Kang Rd until the restricted area lol.

They sure make sure residents in LCK area can move in and out.
The residents have to go out and go back home,no matter
the RSAF fly.Right.
