My interpretation from the CNA article was:Originally posted by disappear:i have just read the chinese article. dont know if i've misread it, but was the article trying to say that, after 20 to 25 years, Bukit Timah LIne and Eastern Region Line would have been completed,built, and in operation, rather than the 2 lines would be completed only after20 to 25 years. there's a huge difference in meaning!!
Also mentioned in the article is that they are hoping that after 20 to 25 years, S'pore's rail network would be as comprehensive as London's. So i am led to interpret that it is trying to say that in 2025, BTL and ERL, in addition with many other rail lines, would have been ready, because, if Singapore ONLY has BTL and ERL(plus JRL, Boon Lay Ext, and downtown ext) added to it in 2025, the rail network is still way behind london's and in no way can be compared to it.
Then what will happen to the bus??? I hope that bus still can dominate the transport system or maybe to the worse still the ranking is just after the MRT and not cars or taxis.Originally posted by SBS9828X:woot~~ i will be having child then...![]()
From some of the post here, i really feel that MRT domination will take place

Which part of Bukit Timah u live? you can still access CCL Adam station after it is completed in 2010Originally posted by finoq:Bukit timah Line!

It'll be 36 years without MRT...
My interpretation is that both MRT lines are expected to be in operation in the next 20 to 25 years.Originally posted by iamgoondu:My interpretation from the CNA article was:
"The eRL and Btl shall be ready ready by 2025.
Very likely. However, is the ground in Singapore able to support so many tunnels, especially in the CBD area?Originally posted by Meilin86:How are they going to build the line?underground?
All future MRT lines are likely underground.Originally posted by Meilin86:How are they going to build the line?underground?

Please don't make life difficult for all of us. This forums is generally known to most as a public transportation forum, so it includes mrt & lrt. And as Zilchster said, do not advertise other forums in here.Originally posted by muziq bus:Erm, next time can post this on the SMRT sgForum instead?

endorse?Originally posted by Zilchster:Once again, please do not advertise another forum on this forums, thank you. I think someone else (not me) has already mentioned this in other posts. Sorry to say this, but muziq bus, you are irritating.
As tamago has mentioned, we do not endorse the MRT Forums. It has no connection to this forums whatsoever.
