SINGAPORE: A section of the road above a Circle Line construction site near Holland Road caved in on Saturday morning, creating a massive hole. !<!5;f8

According to the Land Transport Authority, tunnelling work about 25 metres under the road was in progress when it caved in. The tunnelling work is part of the last few stages of the Circle Line construction in the area, between Holland and Farrer Road stations. VgfA&?4[

LTA engineers and contractors have assessed the situation there and they confirmed that there is no risk to residents in the area. But LTA advises the public to avoid the road. Work is underway to fill up the hole and LTA is monitoring the situation. YE<_a;yh1

One family, whose house is right in front of the cave-in, said they noticed a huge crack at about 8.30pm on Friday before that section of the road collapsed at about 5am the next day. Ap}^6_YXd

"This morning (when) I woke up... my little brother and I went out to look and there was a huge hole in the road about 20 feet long and maybe 10 feet wide and it is filled with water," said 14-year-old Eliot Sperling. }UwDHq=
