SINGAPORE – A restaurant in Holland Village was ordered to close by the authorities after crowds gathered at the eatery on Friday evening (June 19), the first day of phase two of Singapore’s reopening.
The road where the restaurant is located was also reopened to traffic to prevent people from gathering on the street, said the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) on Saturday.
URA said that the authorities observed people gathering around the outdoor refreshment areas and on the road along Lorong Mambong on Friday evening.
Crowds were seen at the British Indian Curry Hut, which URA said failed to ensure safe management practices were adhered to.
“We have therefore ordered the restaurant to close with immediate effect. The restaurant will only be allowed to do takeaways next week and open for dining in from June 29, provided it has shown that it is able to implement safe management measures for its customers,” said the authority.
Lorong Mambong will also be reopened to traffic to prevent people from gathering on the street, and the outdoor refreshment areas along the sidewalks of Lorong Mambong will also be removed.
