Q. What is the End of Trip (EoT) construction timeline?
A. The EoT works will commence October 2021 and be completed by September 2022. The works will be completed in stages to minimise disruption to our customers and surrounding residents and businesses
Q. Where is the new EoT located?
A. The new EoT will be located in the current B1 executive car park. The existing EoT is in the B2 executive car park.
Q. Why are we getting a new EoT facility?
A. Central Park is committed to continually improving our offering and providing a premium business environment for our customers. Last year, we transformed our lobby and conference centre, and we are working on improving our façade and fitness centre as we speak. The new EoT will align with these refurbishments, enhancing our property to provide a modern and fresh facility that provides our customers with access to state-of-the-art amenities.
Q. What will the new EoT look like?
A. The brand-new EoT will align with Central Park’s elegant, modern and light style. Customers can expect to see Spanish limestone floor contrasting with stone countertops, warm lighting features, light-tone woods and fabrics. The EoT will feature a modern cool down lounge and a central lounge with a water station, hydration point, a TV and background music. Customers will also have access to a drying room, and ironing stations within each changeroom. Artistic renders capturing the new facility can be viewed here.
Q. How will the EoT improve Central Park’s customer experience?
A. Our recent tenant survey revealed that our customers wanted more lockers and showers in the EoT. The new EoT facility will fulfill this request, with 644 lockers across the male, female and UAT/DDA changerooms, as well as day lockers inside the shared space. For customer security, the lockers will be controlled by access cards or via a pin code system (this is still to be determined). There will be 10 female changeroom showers, 12 male changeroom showers and one UAT/DDA changeroom shower. Additionally, there will be more bike storage space than ever before, with additional bike racks to accommodate up to 289 bikes. We have also introduced five electric bike charging stations in the bike storage area. There will be a number of improved features for our customers to enjoy, including a cycling vending machine, bike repair zone, and a new shoe-shine area. Members will also experience the popular lobby signature scent “Lotus Zen” in the facility. To enable greater convenience for our customers, the new EoT will still maintain direct building access via the central core lift and spiral staircase.
Q. Will the new EoT accommodate recumbent bicycles?|
A. Yes, there are two bays dedicated to recumbent bicycles at the end of the bicycle corridor.
