Don’t care, not going thru my place.

Got one station in Butterworth

No way the LRT line crossing the Penang Strait .. there is a busy shipping lane and how many columns needed for a bridge and height restrictions, you see the Penang Bridge 1 & 2 how high it is to allow ships to pass underneath, meaning the bridge needs to start the slope up much further from the current Penang side ferry terminal and slope down much further than Penang Sentral .. and PPC will never allow such construction, further more the fuel storage facility next to Pg Sentral is to be re-located near the mouth of Prai River ..meaning oil tankers need to sail further up the strait posing hazard if a collision happened .. Guess why the Penang SkyCab was cancelled ? Because PPC did not allow even a single cable car column in the strait ...the original plan was to built an bridge expansion next to the existing first Penang Bridge for the LRT to cross to Sbg Jaya then go to Penang Sentral and Raja Uda ..

it already been approved for the cross strait to penang sentral

same, i was excited until i see the map
dont know why places like air itam farlim where a lot of elder ppl stay and needed this mrt but no build

Actually I thought penang sentral was the butterworth station?

And now you put it this way this particular segment might make for spectacular views.

probably no more budget when they extended to Penang sentral at Butterworth, which take significant cost due to cross straits connectivity.

But in future might be mutiara line 2.

tbh when mutiara line 2 or 3 done, im afraid a lot of us no longer in this world anymore

Just need prepare for inconvenience, they'll put these signboards every where.

We Klang Valleyians already experience the hardship. Now Penang's turn to take the Baton.

"Segala kesulitan amat dikesali"
"Kami membina untuk masa hadapan anda"

We Johorian also experience with the MRT corp sign on RTS, they even split a pedestrian bridge in half to cater for the construction.

No go SG cari makan?

Already went there. Quite ok life

I feel that every JB person got one in their family working in SG.

Same like Selangorian working in Klang or Kedahan working in penang.

Human extinct by then?

The bright side is places where the LRT is not passing thru won’t have to endure terrible jam during the LRT construction.

without lrt also the penang housing price already at sohai level, imagine when these lrt completed lel

you are wrong there, Penang is an Island you pusing2 same also, cannot ran away, people will pass through areas where no jam, thus creating jam ..

Progress? 0% so far

There is already a bypass project from farlim to the Lim Chong Eu expressway.

Personally I think the main problem with Farlim is that there are only two exits from there, Air Itam, Hamilton Road. Three if you include the hilly road to gelugor/balik pulau.

This image already make a lot of people red eye



For context (before eyes come out blood)
