Source : Channel NewsAsia, 16 January 2008

A market and food centre in Ang Mo Kio will re-open on Wednesday after a $4 million facelift.

The 28-year-old hawker centre at Block 724, Ang Mo Kio Avenue 6, was closed for upgrading on April 1 last year.

The work was carried out under the National Environment Agency's Hawker Centres Upgrading Programme (HUP).

The refurbished single-storey market and food centre has 45 cooked food stalls, 30 lock-up stalls and 48 market stalls.

There are also more places for customers. There are now 196 tables, compared to 123 previously.

The new food centre also has a multi-coloured glass louvres facade as well as elderly and handicap-friendly features.

These include ramps and tables specially made for those in wheelchairs. - CNA/de
