Dragonaxe SG

there's no granite being a reclaimed ground

OH right, I heard from somewhere it only can dig 10m to minimise disturbence to the ground on top

SBS7322B SG

all these gotta plan early alrdy.

the current 22 add ons are practically too late when demand grew so much :(

You are right. As I said, SMRT surely have to take action if things doesn't go well.

They try to cut cost whereever possible

SMRT can't really do much as it isn't BOT.. It's LTA's cue.

But wat SMRT could do is to improve off peak freq for now.

partly layman term it's profits.. but I believe today's generation of govt policy planners never do early planning.

We used to be trailblazers.

sbs8104h SG

they should consider extending futher down towards Marina Barrage lerh

Actually, there were a total of 3 stations proposed along the line in the Marina Bay area...only 1 was constructed (current Marina Bay station)...

sbst275 SG

but worth or not? Later need to spend $$ to buy more trains.

Really, MRT is only for heavy corridor.

LTnF1fan SG

I think haven't even started work...

Contract awarded liao mah. There is something called planning and research...

Marina Barrage not high demand. Likely that will be covered by ERL.

not optimisitic.

Because it's going to be very cramp considering 10 lane MCE.

jcqh SG

Another 3rd train will go for one round on CGL at 8am, returning CHD at 8.30am.

Nope, I checked the morning schedule, all 11-13min intervals.

Ok, one is current Marina Bay , the other is Marina Barrage, which had been considered for the Marina South Extension and Marina Pier, the confirmed and building in progress of Marina South Extension.

and not sure if this will be true...a scissors crossover after the station, as stated in the diagram.

smrt3099 SG

Most likely NSL/EWL cant do scissors crossing

Kawac151 SG

Wonder how it'll look like when it's completed...

NickLim™ SG

Most likely NSL/EWL cant do scissors crossing

Are you sure? I wonder what type of crossover does Changi Airport and Marina Bay use now...
