Because T2 like T1 use to Q until the outside road. That is why
during peak T1 become a 3 lanes, and now T2 is going for all time 2
lanes.
To be first class airport, how can let tourist and travellers
see all this colorful taxis, lau lau uncles Q on the road all the
way, therefore, they are trying hard to keep taxis undercover as
much as possible at the correct taxis waiting bay.
Taxis holding area in AP is a huge place, and in the
scarcity of Singapore land, that place, can anytime build a hotel
or shopping complex or any other commerical building to earn money,
like T3 taxi Q is the 3/4 size of the terminal complex. To them it
is money wasting and if Taxi is to Q into main road, something is
very wrong liao.
If AP invest so much for Taxi Q area, it must work
I disagree with you....
Taxi queue is a must in any other Airports around the
world.....
Many countries I been to also will see "Rojak" taxi queueing
here and there, the worst is non other than Beijing.....
Their taxi queue got divide into zone 1.....
Before approaching the International Terminal, you will start to
see snake and snake of taxi queueing....
The only problem I forsee at our AP queueing system is
endangering of other road user, because in Beijing, although their
taxi also queue at main road but is zone up, just like open carpark
like that, will not obstruct other road user and they have many
this kind of zone around their Airport, btw, Beijing old and new
airport is farking big, so they got the luxury to do that, many
space mah.....
If now they can deploy Cisco at T2, I don't see why cannot
deploy them at the entrance of every terminal, once full, stop taxi
from forming "illegal" queue....
