Breaking News today on Singapore News Channel: a highway collapsed.

From what I got, it was next to a work area for a new MRT station. There was a problem with some gas pipe, an explosion and 200 to 300m of the Nicoll Highway on the East Coast collapsed. 1 person is hurt, 4 people are declared missing (perhaps under the road) and my taxi driver tonight told me that 1 person was dead.
The images were shocking. The explosion made a 40m wide crater, the road is basically cut in half. it looks like an earthquake happened to drop by.

Quite terrible - it makes it difficult for me to appreciate the virtues of excellent vegetarian food offered by the Original Sin, at Holland Village.
