Limited Choice No More
Hah, if I am to name the best highway in Singapore, I will lift up both my hands and legs that its none other than KPE. I even considered if we should move to Telok Blangah in 5 years time.
KPE- Kallang Paya Lebar Expressway is the newly opened highway that connects TPE to ECP almost parallel to CTE. The entrance into the expressway is only a cool 2+ minutes from my carpark along TPE towards Changi airport. The longest underground tunnel in SE Asia can bring us to ECP in a mere 10 minutes even at the speed limit of 70kmph.
The expressway is still very much underutilitised at this stage since its opening about 2 weeks ago. However, I have been using it to get to church in Marine Parade, Suntec City, Marina Square. Our outing choices have opened up big time and within 2 hours, we can have dinner and do some shopping before getting back home for Leianne's nap/sleep.
On friday, we used it to get to Suntec via Nicol Highway and reached at about 7pm after LA's dinner, we had dinner at Kenny Rogers, followed by grocery shopping at Carefour and guess what, home at 9pm! Yesterday, we hit the expressway again, this time to Marina Square after LA's lunch at about 130pm, we shopped at John Little and discovered a "Children's Land" at one corner of Marina Square which we have never set foot on before and bought a set of Lego blocks for LA. I even had a Carls Junior Burger before we left at 345pm reaching home at a cool 4pm. Wow!
Thank God for KPE! If any punggolites have yet to explore options available with KPE, well, there are many... try it and you will find out more.
