Then people might say reclaimed land harder to built MRT
stations underground. But people will also ask, then how come the
ones under nicoll highway, promenade, bayfront, esplanade, and
marina stations can be built leh?
I want to point out DownTown Line at Bukit Panjang too. PAP said
they line cannot curve so drastically from Cashew station to the
middle of BP, so they must build it at the edge of town. Residents
lan lan stuck with LRT.
Yet Circle Line made a tighter loop from Bras Basah, Esplanade
and Promenade even with many buildings in the way.
I think they are more afraid nobody will take LRT and the system
will grow cobwebs. Therefore must force in typical PAP style.
