31 Jul 2015 / Singapore, Singapore
The Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore will be conducting "Exercise Blue Dolphin 2014", a Passenger Vessel Mishap Exercise, on Friday, 11 July 2014 from 9am to 3pm. The exercise will involve the evacuation of "role payers" acting as passengers from a passenger ship at sea to Marina South Pier (MSP) and Marina Bay Cruise Centre (MBCC). In view of the larger number of role players and emergency vehicles participating in the exercise, and the need to ensure public safety, MSP will be partially closed for the duration of the exercise. CLOSURE OF MARINA SOUTH PIER, ACCESS ROAD & CAR PARK To facilitate the exercise, the following will be implemented: a. The pier's main hall and ticketing counters will be closed. b. The car park within the premises of MSP will be closed from 5am to 4pm on 11 July 2014. c. One lane of the Marina Coastal Drive, in front of MSP, will be closed from 9am to 3pm on the 11 July 2014. During the closure, only authorised vehicles will be allowed to enter; MSP will still be partially opened; an access path will be established between the entrance to MSP and the ICA checkpoint. Personnel embarking the passenger launches/boats from the MSP are to use this access path. Marshals will be deployed on the ground to assist with directions. There will be no changes to the schedule and route of SBS Transit Service No.402, plying between Shenton Way Terminal and Marina Bay Cruise Centre. Members of the public and the shipping community are advised to plan their activities ahead in time to avoid Marina South Pier during the partial closure on 11 July 2014, from 9am to 3pm.
