Good news for those who usually travel from Yishun MRT to the Orchard Road belt. If you think that your daily commuting life is become more and more daunting, you can soon have an easy access through the upcoming Northpoint Link project. This will be the latest underground connection located in Nee Soon that can be used by anyone particularly those who will come or go to the Northpoint City. The latter will be connected to the Yishun MRT though the construction is expected to start by August 2015.
Cheang Kok Kheong talked about the upcoming project as managed by the Frasers Centrepoint Limited. Through the accessibility provided by the soon-to-be Northpoint Link, it will only take the commuters about 20 minutes to reach the Orchard Road. Taking the train to the busy Orchard Road belt will now be a breeze. They can also immediately ride any of the available buses at the interchange since the Yishun MRT will also have a pathway going to these transportation hubs.
As commuters’ convenience will no longer be an issue, the development will also address the need for retail shops as well. There will be as much as 30 shops that will open for everyone so it’ll be easier for them to purchase snacks, sip a coffee while waiting, or even spend some for new clothes from these stalls. Walking will also be comfortable along the Northpoint Link since the whole area will have a centralized air-conditioning system. Heavy foot traffic is also expected at the Northpoint Shopping Centre as well.
