Orchard Road flood: Shops at Lucky Plaza and Liat Towers submerged

Shops and eateries at the ground floor of Lucky Plaza and Liat Towers, including Starbucks, were submerged under flood waters after the heavy downpour this morning (Jun 16).

STOMPer SingaporeATeam said:

"It's been raining heavily since this morning. Now, the Lucky Plaza basement is flooded.

"The water has reached up to ankle level and is affecting many shoppers and businesses.

"People are all amazed - they're just standing around watching the unexpected flooding of the area."

STOMPer Matthew said:

"The flood destroyed shops such as Starbucks, Hermes, Wendy's and Massimo Duttiat, located at the basement of Liat Towers.

"There is massive flooding at Newton Circus. A lot of cars are 'dead' in the water."

It reminds me of Kota Tinggi once submerged due to flooding. The good thing more rain makes over reservoir more water to drink n bathe.

@magtan76

Such a keen analysis. I'm sure you're the genius of the class.

I honestly hope they ain't gonna blame it on the 'contractors'.

If you look around the area, you will notice that there's a major constuction going on, modifying the big monsoon drain near KK hospital. They may have bottleneck the drainage there to make way for road construction works.
