New MRT City Line
-
The new MRT City Line runs along the same route as the North-South Line. Wonder why they are wasting money to build such a line?
They could have build a new line linking the north directly to the east. Or build the line further up into Holland and upper Jurong West. -
Same route as NSL?
Sure bo? -
You should have seen the MRT master plan created by LTA.
Supposed to ready by the year 20xx..
Will make travelling by road almost non-existent. -
Dont be too happy. This present regime will charge everything they spent on you. It wont be free lunch!
Good question - do we really need this?
I think time is catching up, so they start spending and building more grandeur projects so that people will not forget them when they are gone
'WE HAVE UNLIMITED RESOURCES !!!"
It's just like Shih Huang Ti and the Egyptian pharoahs all over again. -
Huh?
It passes by several NSL stations as far as I know. Go to the Trains forum and take a look at the map. -

Time to save up and prepare for fare increase next
-
it's the Thomson Line or Arts Line.
Marina - Nicoll Highway - Beach Rd - Lavender St - Balestier Rd - Thomson Rd - Upp Thomson Rd - Sin Ming - Ang Mo Kio Ave 4 - Lentor Estate - SLE - Woodlands Ave 6
guess tat wun be built until 2025, and it requires Lentor to be more developed. and then it provides an express route into Woodlands. -
n north shore line!

All this construction costs are unneccessary if our population remains at 3-4 Million.
But now that the regime's wicked planned to crowd up to 7 million into this small red dot -
they are spending more of our hard earned tax money,
in order to accommodate their favorite people,
the foreigners!
Remember this, the old mindsets are not doing all this projects for our sakes! -
I call this, the LPPL Line... -
Oh no, we are going to pay more to "feed" more white elephants.

the FTs will be driving their big expensive cars...
and the lines are built for commoners like us...
so that we dun drive and hog the roads... -
If you are staying at Bukit Panjang, I believe you save alot of time travelling...Originally posted by hawkeye1819:The new MRT City Line runs along the same route as the North-South Line. Wonder why they are wasting money to build such a line?

Is it a waste? Look at it yourself. -
One things for sure.
You won't see any MPs or ministers taking the MRT. -
after build, will not open all stations because lack of ridership but fare cost already calculated in that stop that no one can use... like buangkok loh....

This line seems redundant, IMO. There's already CCL and NCL nearby.Originally posted by ^tamago^:it's the Thomson Line or Arts Line.

Anyway, the DTL eastern section seems to be duplicating NEL and EWL a little. -
Which is basically truly, LPPL...
The gov is going berserk with our money..! -
Sorry, the City Line I was referring to is the Downtown Line. Not sure why the papers refer it as City Line.Originally posted by Y_Shun:If you are staying at Bukit Panjang, I believe you save alot of time travelling...

Yes, it looks convenient for Bukit Panjang residents only. But the rest of the whole route is like a duplicate. And it's not that Bt Panjang residents cannot get to central. A bus to East West Line followed by change to EWL MRT will do the trick. -
Believe me, it's much better if we could take a train down Bukit Timah.Originally posted by hawkeye1819:Sorry, the City Line I was referring to is the Downtown Line. Not sure why the papers refer it as City Line.

Who in their right mind would want to head on down to Clementi and switch? -

hmm...okay la, the part of the ex-eastern region line should not be built. duplicates both NEL + EWL. this one i agree...Originally posted by hawkeye1819:Sorry, the City Line I was referring to is the Downtown Line. Not sure why the papers refer it as City Line.
