MAJOR UPGRADING AT THE DECK
The Office of Estate & Development will be carrying out major upgrading works to The Deck@FASS from mid-October 2006 to end July 2007.
The upgrading work is necessary to meet current National Environment Agency’s (NEA) standards for canteens/food courts e.g. proper separate cooking and serving areas, tray return and washing points, etc. With years of usage and the increasing number of students, there are also problems like leaking roof, poor ventilation and limited power supply capacity in the existing canteen which require enhancement. It is therefore timely now to renovate and improve on the serviceability of The Deck (Arts Canteen).
The seating capacity at new Deck will be about 1300, up from 1000, and spread over two levels to meet the growing demands for more seats at this popular canteen by staff and students.
We seek your understanding for any inconvenience caused during the renovation period. OED, OSA and NUSSU are exploring alternative dining venues to help minimise dining inconvenience during this period.
Alternative venues or other arrangements for dining are being considered at the following locations :
1) The Terrace @ BIZ
2) The Techno Edge @ Engine
3) Cafe at LT12
4) Cafe at the Forum
5) Dining Halls at Eusoff and Temasek Halls
6) Food Wagons & Push Carts at the Forum
These alternative venues or arrangements will be confirmed in September 2006.
To understand your dining needs better, a roadshow on what the upgrading works will encompass will be held along the corridor outside LT9 from 21 to 25 August 2006. Please visit the roadshow and provide us with your valuable feedback to help us further improve on your dining experience@Deck.
Please contact my colleague, Miss xxx(xxx@nus.edu.sg) if you need any clarifications.
Thank you
