Today update

- Eastern Region Line alignment had been finalised, stations announced
- Thomson line will be extended from Gardens by The Bay to Sungai Bedok
- Downtown line project will be extended from Expo (current Stage 3 of the DTL project) to Sungei Bedok with another new station in between known as Xilin

If only we had the same planning for KL!

Btw, is it true that Paris have the most convenient underground system in the world? I remember having to pick one from the 2 stations everytime I step out from a place in Paris depending on the line I'd be taking.

I am not sure as I haven't been to Paris yet

But I had the same situation in Tokyo.

Wow come lets buy woodland for future investment

last i was there, they are doing downtown line now thompson liao
wah so good

woodlands north - RTS/MRT - JB
tuas link - HSR - KL

I hope not Tuas Link, too far.

Jurong East or CBD please....

doubt would reach cbd.. too expensive

even j.east is hard... coz soon j.east would be the cbd of the west... massive development taking place already...

nearest would be boonlay i guess...

SG proposes three choices for HSR station site.

- Tuas
- Jurong East
- CBD

If build at Tuas, HSR will never be viable.

it also makes a joke that travel from west to east, cross at least 29 stations and takes almost 1 hr time (4x km distance),
kampung, you said it is efficient and an "optimsied design"? from your experience with so many countries and places mrt design? you tell us better we said it clearly here

hmm... not for me to comment... i think sg's URA and LTA already announce at tuas...

In other cities, they have another faster mode of transport aside from MRT which stops at shorter station intervals, which is the express rail.

Paris has the metro (their MRT) and the RER, which is more suitable to travel longer distance around Paris metropolitan area. RER is similar to our KTM Komuter.

Dunno if you can spot the difference

Are you with of one the contractors , hehe

Canberra missing?

Kampung how about Malaysia. If all the MRT lines are ready. We are pretty well connected aren't we

Circle line no connection between harbour front to marina bay?? I thought they want to make it into perfect circle.....

Paris are not the best. I will still chose germans ubahn+sbahn+regional train as the best one.

don't focus east side la. i want sg - jb

MRT 1 = progressing, so does LRT extension. It seems LRT 3 (Bdr Utama-Klang) is moving.........and maybe the MRT 2. The challenge is that KL is very spread out, hence building MRT alone will not help as it is very expensive, yet population may not be dense enough. Thus, maybe we should also pursue BRT (bus rapid transit).

I also hope to see government can start planning LRT in other cities, particularly Penang, JB, KK and Kuching for example.

Circle Line between Harbourfront and Marina Bay is a certainty, listed as part of LTA long term plan. The exact alignment of this line depends on what are they going to do on the land which is now the Keppel Port, of which its lease will end in few years time.

Woodlands North future rapid transit (RTS) link to Johor

keppel port? PSA u mean... the gov is taking over brani island and will reclaim land... they would change d whole area from industrial to commercial and ultra luxury residences rivaling monaco... 2 more casinos is expected to be constructed

after viewing the map and from a country defense view, is it too dangerous to sg ? as each station works as bomb shelter will also be a node for targeting.
but who knows, some said sg may dig an underground city to live in the future

BRT? Somehow I still have a deep mistrust of anything bus related in Malaysia. Let's see how the current planned brt works out

You just came out from hibernation!??

KL is slow, but at least something is in the pipeline - MRT Line 1 under construction, Line 2 coming soon; and then there is LRT extension and potentially a new LRT line; last but not least - Sunway BRT.

We also have lah.. MRT line 1, 2 and 3 , LRT line 3 and LRT extension , KTM Subang skypark line , BRT outer ring line , Monorail happy garden extension

BRT outer ring line + other rail lines :
