Sports Hub: How to get there
Sports Hub: How to get there
With 30,000 people expected to converge at the Singapore Sports Hub for multiple events next weekend, organisers on Thursday (June 19) outlined their plans on how the public can access the venue.
The Sports Hub is easily accessible by various transport modes. Three MRT stations - Stadium, Mountbatten and Kallang - are within walking distance. Seven bus services and three taxi stands provide more options. Major expressways also feed into the multiple entry and exit points which serve the hub.
Those who plan to drive to the new National Stadium when there is an event happening there should remember to buy their parking tickets first. Without one, you will not be able to park at the Stadium.
"During event days in the National Stadium, no parking is available unless you buy a pre-purchased parking lot," said Mr Eric Tan, Managing Director of DTZ. "You need to go to our website to purchase the parking lot. When you arrive, display your decal and we will guide you to your lot. If you do not pre-purchase, there will be no lots for anyone who tries to find a parking lot."
The pre-purchase is only for some 800 lots located within the National Stadium. You still have more than 3,000 other parking lots to choose from at the Sports Hub, the Singapore Indoor Stadium and Kallang Leisure Park Mall.
Members of the public can purchase the pre-sold parking on a first-come-first-served basis at www.sportshubtix.sg or at all Singapore Post outlets. Each ticket costs $10.70 and is valid from 7am of the event day till 7am the next morning.
Organisers have also printed a guide map to inform the public about how to access the Sports Hub. 50,000 copies will be distributed to residents living around the Stadium, and more copies will be made available island-wide.
There is also a hotline (6653-8900) and website (www.sportshub.com.sg) where similar information is available. For the whole of July, members of the public can try out the facilities in the hub free of charge - the free trials will cover various indoor games as well as swimming and kayaking.

巴西世界杯即将在后天开打，开幕赛究竟将由谁夺得首胜，本地测球金龙鱼“大发”和“小发”唱反调，放弃大热巴西，“大发”预测踢和，“小发”则测克罗地亚胜出。
本届世界杯开幕赛将在本地时间星期五（6月13日）凌晨4时举行，由东道主巴西对垒克罗地亚，究竟谁将率先赢得开门红？
《新明日报》昨日报道，上届世界杯测球神准的神鸟玛尼已被老主人以500元卖掉，目前不知所踪，玛尼当时虽测错大决赛的赢家，但8强赛与半决赛的预测都神准。
虽然没了神鸟玛尼，本地两条金龙鱼“大发”和“小发”因在2012年欧锦赛分别测中至少3场比赛，名声大噪，因此金龙鱼如今也首次加入世界杯测球行列。
300条金龙鱼中挑出2条‘神鱼’测球。

Larkin Stadium set for Super League
Larkin Stadium set for Super League
The use of the Tan Sri Hassan Yunus Stadium in Larkin here is for only football activities and will not stifle the growth of athletics and sports in the state.
Johor Youth, Sports, Culture and Heritage committee chairman Datuk Zulkarnain Ahmad Tajuddin (BN-Parit Sulong) said the stadium popularly known as the Larkin Stadium is the home ground to the Johor Darul Ta'zim football team.
Other facilities in the stadium such as the track had been removed to make way for the football teams taking part in the Malaysian Super League (MSL).
At the state assembly here on Monday, Datuk Samsol Bari Jamali (BN-Semarang) said that closing the stadium to other sporting activities was a concern among the people and short-term measures needed to be taken to curb the problem.
In his reply, Zulkarnain said those who had used the facilities at Larkin Stadium in the past can choose to use other facilities in their district to carry out sporting activities.
"There are stadiums in every district in the state to facilitate the needs of the athletes.
"Short-term measures for athletes in Johor Baru is to access the Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Skudai (UTM) Stadium and also the Educity Sports Centre in Nusajaya," he said.
For instance, Zulkarnain said the Johor contingent to the Malaysian Games (Sukma) athletes used the facilities at the SM Tun Hussien Onn in Kluang, which is the official state centralising training camp for the contingent.
"The State Sports Council has a close rapport with the respective district stadium operators, management and owners, thus they have always been given priority in the development of athletes and are allowed to use the facilities to organise championships or training."
For long-term solution, Zulkarnain said the state government has given the approval for the Johor Baru Sport City to be built in Mount Austin to replace the Larkin Stadium.
He said the prestigious stadium will be fitted with the state-of-the-art facilities namely track and field facilities, a field, a futsal court, a fitness centre, gymnasium, a sports clinic, rehabilitation centre, a recreation centre, a sport-science facility managed by the state sports council and hostels, among others.
The Tan Sri Hassan Yunos Stadium here in Larkin, can be spotted miles away, thanks to its bright colours. that represent the state flag colours.
