High car parks ramps and bumps

[peterlaw]

BMW should not be staying in Carpark!!!

from the number of places in the list, i'm not taking my car anywhere. there must be some standards for road humps and ramps or it is up to the fancy of the architects or civil engineers?

my grandma lives at toh yi estate and there is a terribly designed hump (can't call it a hump as it has a trapezium cross section). it is located next to the gas station and a 24hr coffee shop. scrapped the front lip of my new bimmer on its first visit to the estate. and my car has stock suspension setup. i now have to take the other entrance/exit that is next to the community centre.

maybe we should write to LTA or BCA to ask for an explanation.

Tanzy,

Thanks for taking the initative for listing them out nicely

maybe we should write to LTA or BCA to ask for an explanation.

LTA std for humps (trapezodial ones or normal 'curved' profile) max height wil reach 100mm height.
from the list, it seems to highlight mostly private property places that LTA will not be able to request for compliance to their std structure

the Tanglin shell station's exit. the one opposite Tudor Court.

 

[Tanzy]

Just trying to contribute. Vested interest in the compilation of this list too. 8)
Gonna print it out and leave a copy in the car. Car park must be approved for bump clearance before entering.

26.Park Mall. The stupid hump at the top. Must go sideways or else sure scrape the bottom.
27. East Point basement carpark. They use the small but tall pointed type of humps. If you take a cross section of it, it's even more pointy and acute than Pam Anderson's silicon mounts and silicon valleys.
28. Takashimaya B3 carpark. Careful on the way down as you can scrape your bumper at the bottom of the ramp.
29. Changi General Hospital carpark. Try not to take the exit that comes out to the side of A+E. Top of the ramp has a high ramp which you gotta go sideways
30. Changi General Hospital internal road connecting the main visitor lobby to the side service road. High hump. Just look at all the scratches on top of it man!

Topaz Blue NOT humping...
