TRAFFIC JAM TO AN OFFICE WORKER
I imagine myself as an office worker.
Name : Dino
Occupation : Teller bank at City Hall
Age : 28
As an office worker, I have to arrive at the office on time everyday. The working hours are from 8.30 a.m. to 5.00 p.m. I usually get up at 7.30 and leave house at 8.00 a.m. Normally, I need 20 minutes driving from my house in Bukit Batok to the office. However, there was a day when the construction along Newton has caused 2 lanes of the road to sink. At the peak-hour traffic heading towards the Stevens Road intersection slowed to a snarl on Bukit Timah Road after a short section of the road sank. The depression caused two left lanes to be closed to traffic, leaving only one available lane. As a result, there was a massive traffic jam that lasted for several hours and because of it, I need extra 30 minutes to arrive at the office. I felt very stressful because of that unpredictable situation and on my way to the office, i also felt nervous of being late to work. Moreover, i waste my time and energy on the road because of the traffic jam.
