Question 1: Will the provision tunnel in Punggol means that if
Punggol really got the North Coast / Shore Line, it will be another
overhead cantry system, prefably 6 cars formation, so that the NEL
trains can extend itself.
Question 2: Is my speculation on the http://www.sgforums.com/forums/2080/topics/391491?page=7
correct? (On the post with a title: Do you know that why
DTL Stage 3 is delayed like mad and why Kallang Line was never
materialized.)
Question 3: Why cant the LTA built an underground linkway from
Bukit Panjang LRT to Bukit Panjang MRT station with the flexibility
of closing 2 lifts at a time (1 from each side platform) so that to
extend the lift to serve the underground linkway as well. In this
way, they can no need to demolish / alter any of the station
positioning. I personally find that the distance between Bukit
Panjang MRT and LRT station is no longer than one in Outram Park /
Dhoby Ghaut. So whats the problem here? This especially when the
LTA Engineers have a mission to consider things in commuter point
of view.
Question 4: Since the Ten Mile Junction has a lack of integrated
hub, which is a model that the authorities took on, coupled with
current non-integrated interchange of BPJ MRT / LRT further
strained by the error prone Bukit Panjang LRT system that has long
abandoned by the Changi Skytrain (And SMRT / SLRT did not EVEN go
and use those Changi Skytrain in order to boost their frequencies),
does that this hint in the long term point of view, Bukit Panjang
LRT will be scrapped and probably rebuilt with the consideration of
the location where Bukit Panjang MRT is located (Prefably a 13 LRT
stations, minus Ten Mile Junction, where the rebuilt-ed Bukit
Panjang LRT station can serve as between the bus interchange and
Ten Mile Junction (Just above Bukit Panjang MRT)
Question 5: How does the LTA come up with the contract numbers.
Because this contract related to Marina Costal Expressway was a
C48X while North East Line related contracts, despite was awarded
way earlier, had a number of C75X (With the famous of C751A)
Question 6: I am one of the BVE developer, I would like to
represent the entire BVE Singapore to ask for LTA identity font so
as to design the signboard etc found in the MRT stations.
Question 7: Since LTA 1996 Whitepaper, which can be found on
http://www.lta.gov.sg/corp_info/doc/white%20paper.pdf
(Dont bother to remove it, I have save a hard copy already), is
there any newer / updated version to it? (Or was that evolved
to MasterPlan etc)
Feedback 1: Please, in the mock train, give us have a glimsp of
the control, and please tell your staff that all the automatic
trains (CBTC such as C751A, C830, C951 trains etc) do have the
controls in the head of the trains. It is called CM mode.
Feedback 2: I find that Eastern Region Line is too isolated, as
a resident in Marine Parade areas, I would like to suggest for
Circle Line in Paya Lebar middle track could have extended into one
of the Eastern Region Line station, prefably in Marine Parade /
Tanjong Katong. As an additional bonus, the DT27 could have built
in the form of CTH / RFP style or Rochor style instead of a middle
track such that the residents from Bedok Resevoir could have went
to Bedok South with a MRT line. The advantage will be avoiding the
need of another "JEMP" in future. (See the point on my Question
2)
