Protests over Access Road for Paramount View Condo
This particular article in Star Metro a few days ago about Paramount View condominium. (You can read the original review for Paramount View Condo here post in May 2007).
Original the access road to the condo was supposed to be at Jalan SS1/25, but after protests from the residents, the location was moved to Jalan SS1/26. This has now been faced by more protests,
Dispute over roads to condominium
According to the article,
Datuk Dr Wong Sai Hou, adviser of the Unified Coalition of Residents (Ucor) Petaling Jaya, said that it was unbelievable that the Petaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ) could approve a 12.2m two-lane road to be constructed across the TNB reserve land, ploughing through a nursery, parallel to an Indah Water (IWK) plant and joining up with Jalan SS1/26 that is only 7.3m wide.
“Should the new link from the condo to Jalan SS1/26 be allowed, then the queue time backwards to Jalan SS1/36, SS1/25 and SS/18 would be tremendous. The traffic at Sea Park will similarly be affected,” the former Kampung Tunku assemblyman and ex-MBPJ councillor said.
“The drains along Jalan SS1/26 are not uniformly aligned and some portions of the road is narrowed by the drain curbs. The run-off time for rainwater must be calculated as the volume of traffic using Jalan SS1/26, Jalan 21/35 and Jalan 21/27 will be greatly increased and flash flood may become and issue,” Wong said.
He said the original plan of connecting the missing link between the 12.2m wide Jalan SS1/39 and Jalan 21/1 should be revived.
Why dun have proper plan at initial stage when develope the condo? Who should be responsible to this issue? How about the high tension cable which close to the condo and the low cost apartment? how it affect toward the residents there? Will the local council will take any pre caution about that?

How did the developers get the approval in the first place? Many people has purchased a unit in this place and have been waiting since November 2008 to move-in. Isn’t it too late for the residents to protest now? Why weren’t there any protest made when the board for the development was put up?
