  the driving centre at woodland is under construction already.. from wat i heard the building is up.. still renovating i tink.. shld be up next year end..
  
  and its not just SSDC that is moving..
  its all driving centres are moving to woodlands..
  means future singapore only have 1 driving centre at the north..
  heard the place is quite big and 5 storeys high... just like a multi-storey carpark.. but not parking lots.. is the circuit...

  SSDC is moving to Woodlands by end 2008. Current site at AMK is being returned to Government. As for BBDC I'm not too sure, SSDC and BBDC are actually owned by the same people..

  some very ulu part near industrial areas i think... definitely not near the town centre..
  
  anyway, BBDC still has more than 10 years of leasde on the land.
  CDC has 1 more year than SSDC, which is about 4-5 years?
  
  the news also said that SSDC bid S$10 million for the 30 year plot

  You can see the news from http://www.ura.gov.sg/pr/text/pr05-67.html
  
  SSDC's Woodlands building is too near to BBDC in terms of location whereas CDC is in Ubi serving learner driver living in East.
  
  But for those living in North and North-East will have to spend alot of time travelling to SSDC Woodlands for driving/riding learning. I think it is quite troublesome.

  The current SSDC site sucks anyway. Some parking lots make the car roll back and during test, the tester will mark something about car roll backwards. There are also so many vehicles there that each student spend so little time practising while WAITING for their turns. I think a Driving Instructor's salary is not too difficult to come by.

  indeed...old-school design makes it not so conducive for learner drivers / riders...time for SSDC to move into modern world...
