Ma'mor Residents
- Most of the Jalan Ma'mor Residents are fortunate to have a little open air carpark to call their own (see BR22 above). Some of them have a lot (half a lot, or a quarter of a lot) outside their homes, see orange stretch (including space outside Blk 64) along Jalan Ma'mor. A quarter of a lot is because there are 2 rows of terrace houses sharing 1 single row of parking lots and a particular lot might potentially fall in between 4 units. Good thing is, your vehicle never leave your sight.Bahagia Residents
- Bahagia Residents have a bit more options to choose where they want to do their parking.- BR21 (the infamous Open air carpark) which gets crowded at times
- BRM1 at Blk 112A (the 11 decks of multi-storey carpark) Of course, this carpark has the advantage of having your vehicle sheltered from the rain and sun (or birdshit). Bad thing is, be prepared to drive up 4 -5 decks for a space when you're home in the wee hours.
FAQ:
(1) Do the summon pple come all the time?
Yes they do. Even when you leave your car at the loading/unloading bays (see red circle above) at Blk 110 Whampoa Rd, they will stick around until your 30 minutes time is up. Always advise your guests to display their coupons.
(2) I stay at the perimeter of the estate. Are there any alternatives?
Yes. For Blk 42 or 43 residents, you may want to try BR12, an open air carpark which is just at the doorstep. For Blk 52 or 53 residents, you may want to park together with Jalan Rajah neighbours at RC3.
(3) I'm a resident of Blk 39 and both the open air carpark BR21 and the multi-storey carpark BRM1 are of similar walking distance. Where should I park my vehicle?
If you have pregnant mothers or toddlers, it might be safer to walk on more even ground to get to the open air carpark. The multi-storey carpark is full of steps and ramps. It also gets quiet at times so it might be safer to get yourself into the open. On the other hand, this carpark has the advantage of having your vehicle sheltered from the rain and sun (or birdshit!).
(4) How do I get season parking?
For BR21 you may need to wait for available season lots or do some sort of appeal to HDB as this carpark is already FULL. I have no idea for BR22 but if any Ma'mor resident can enlighten about the season parking application over there, please do. For the rest, you can just apply online at the HDB website> e-Services> Home Owners> Parking - Application for Season Parking Ticket (New Application). Or make a trip down to the nearest HDB Branch Office at Whampoa Community Centre just across the road. For your information, BRM1 has the capacity to accomodate ALL the residents around the estate.
