Dangerous U-turns add to daily traffic chaos at Jurong West

STOMPer Alan is fed up with the daily traffic chaos at the junction at Jurong West Central 1 and Jalan Boon Lay. According to the STOMPer, motorists frequently make dangerous U-turns near the junction and end up in a direction opposite to the traffic flow.

In the STOMPer's email:

"I cannot stand the air and noise pollution from the heavy traffic and bottle-neck between Jurong West Central 1 & Jalan Boon Lay!

"Vehicles are often seen making dangerous U-turns andtheir cars  end up parking in the opposite direction facing the Shell station next to River Valley high School!

"The traffic police should be doing something about the suituation there during morning peak hours around 7.30 to 8.30am.

"After work in the evenings , you can see motorbikes from Malaysia speeding to rush for the Woodlands Checkpoints. Especially the motorists donning the orange-coloured shirts (probably company uniform).

"The authorities should really do something about the traffic there.

"It has been like that for over 10 years."

Hey Stupid, you say you live there for 10 years. How come you never see the Legal U TURN sign?..are you blind or something? I also live around that area, so thats why I know there is a U TURN sign before the junction. Think first before you post, ok?

There is a u turn sign so the u turns are legal.The road there is already 3-laned.Jams in the morning and evening there happen everyday.It doesn't help when this road links PIE to AYE,and it's common that roads linking these 2 expressways are always jam during peak hours.It's either stomper bear with it or move away if he is uncomfortable.

If there a U turn sign? If there is then LTA should look into it, if there isn't any, then TP should come and booked those who make illegal U turns.

@stomper Alan: If u hate d noise pollution fm d heavy traffic, u can choose to move away fm the precinct. Dun u tink its insensible of anyone choose to stay near d amendities like mrt station & complain d train is making too much noise?

If d traffic condition is endangering d pedestrian safety, yr input is suggestive to d relevant authority to look into d need of a overhead bridge.
