It is indeed wasting time. so perhaps they should do what kenmin
mentioned......if people exit the fare gates from either station to
go to the other, within a given time they should count it as one
single trip.
previously before circle line started construction, the end of
citylink mall led to the outside of suntec city. now that there is
convention centre station, it will be stupid if the citylink mall
doesn't link to one entrance/exit of convention centre station
instead, after it is ready.
to take the train to raffles place/city hall, cross the platform,
take to dhoby ghaut and walk a while to the circle line platform is
still a shorter walking distance than walking the whole length of
citylink mall to reach convention centre station. time saved by
walking via citylink mall should be at most a few minutes? unless a
better solution can be thought of, guess we have to
compromise..
