Why can't they build a circle line cater to do corner stations places. Eg. Sungai Buloh to Sunway. Or Tun Hussein Onn to Sunway. It's such a hassle to take train all the way to KL Sentral then change to another train then take a long route till destination.

Why not follow Singapore? Their circle line is meants to connect all extreme stations.

That is one of the main problem MRT 3 was intended to solve.

It still doesn't solve. I see much similarity between MRT 2 and 3. They look parallel, passing through similar places.

With MRT3, can I do a one way Sungai Buloh/Kajang to Sunway?

Public transport need to serve the purpose to solve the traffic issues. How many people a day will travel within sg buloh Kajang sunway??  Mrt3 priorities on the areas with higher footprint

Don't we have enough? Frequency is key not lines of parallel MRTs.

What makes one think there isn't footprint? To travel Sg Buloh to Sunway takes 2 hours. Back forth is 4 hours.

All outer stations must head to the centre before taking another train to go to another outer station. Can't we have better planning for this?

Singapore circle lines connect the furthest stations to reach more easily. That's how I see it. ( Yours make sense too.)

MRT3 mainly for KL,

the route you mention already covers by connecting future rail MRT2+LRT3+LRT+BRT

if MBSA realistic on this, you will have sungai buloh to setia jaya then BRT

Taking 4 trains/bus just to reach destination. How convenient that is. May as well drive. Harsh truth.

Thanks for the update.

Our train can help to have some express train service like how Japan does, some trains just do stops on a few important stations and not all stations. This saves time.

Stil invest in prop? Prop market here currently under Grey Rhino leh..won be surprised another 10yrs here will lag behind Indonesia, Vietnam, Philippines..only infront Laos, Myanmar and Cambodia, kinda sad but true..

Look at KL skyline all full with construction built for developers profit than for needs of citizens.

Rral estate, unless landed and bought cheap cheap, isn't the game to play in Malaysia.

Don't even think about renting out. You'll be happy if you can collect rental on time, not mentioning payment of utility bills messing up your place, destroying your furniture and move out half way of tenancy agreement. Police doesn't even entertain such case. We just don't have a law that protects house owners.

Like what the others had mentioned, I wouldn't be surprised if the MRT3 Circle Line will be more focused in the KL city area.

If other neighbourhoods need to be connected, then new lines needed to be created. Petition the local gov't, city authorities and/or city councillors for this to happen.
*
Our feeder bus needs to follow schedule more often.

Other countries people can easily walk to the stations. We just don't have cities designed in a way where walking is encouraged.

I too echo. Bring on the bicycle lane. The big one! Not the blue paint tiny line obstructed by big SUVs.

You try travel from Tuas link to Pasir ris, see how long
😆
And why circle line no connect to Tuas link so called outer station? 😂

Those interchange of circle line are Southern part happening areas in Singapore, buona vista, bishan, serangoon, mac person, Paya Lebar.

You shall open Singapore map to observe those stations, not the mrt map itself. The mrt map will mislead you think those stations are everywhere in Singapore. In fact Singapore mrt lines are focusing on the Southern part CBD

Talking on parallel lines, then you shall check the Singapore North South line and East West line. Also two lines which require you to travel very long till centre areas only can proceed to another line. Similar to your case to travel from Kajang to Klcc area to interchange.

You've a point there smile.gif

Guess my case will be one of the rare case and better to just drive.

4 interchange takes 2 hours one way. Driving takes 30 mins if no traffic. What a breeze to reach destination in 30 min.
