free parking @ mustafa samsuddin


many shoppers, among them singaporeans, are not aware that there are free parking facilities within the shopping complexes of mustafa samsuddin. however, the number of lots is limited. usually, i parked at the car park with its access along syed alwi road.

the other car park can be accessed from verdun road. in this new complex, there are two levels - levels 3 and 4 - of free parking. however, the car park is not open earlier than 10.00 a.m.

but if you go after 5.00 p.m. the ura parking lots - those that are outside the complexes - are also free, which means you do not need to display a parking coupon. in fact, most of the parking lots on the periphery of the complex are free after 5.00 p.m.

over at serangoon plaza where the original mustafa samsuddin is found, there is no free parking.

i spoke too soon. the day after i wrote this, i was unable to find a parking space at both the car parks within the buildings. had to park in one of the ura lots along hindoo road and display a coupon.
