A netizen shared an image of the current situation at Tiong Bahru Road, where a tree was seen to have collapsed and fallen.
Roof of covered walkway damaged by fallen tree
On closer inspection of the image, it looks like the sheltered walkway on the pedestrian walkway has also been damaged because of the fallen tree.
The damages resulting from this incident effectively blocked up the whole road and the pedestrian walkway.
The location of the incident according to the image is on the road separating Block 7 Tiong Bahru Road and Block 26 Tiong Bahru Road.
Tree fall possibly caused by the heavy downpour
Many bystanders were seen at the site of the incident, mostly taking photos of the fallen trees.
It is unknown what caused the tree to collapse but judging from the weather today with all the heavy downpour, we are guessing that that is one of the factors as to why the tree had collapsed.
Here are photos of the incident
It is unknown if anyone was hurt from the fallen trees, we are reaching out to the relevant authorities for further information.
