Consider an east-west MRT line in the north
November 10, 2025
|The Straits Times
I find it puzzling that the two potential new MRT lines being discussed for Tengah and Seletar may be designed to connect with areas near the city centre.
Apart from the Cross Island Line, most existing routes already funnel commuters into the central area.
If these new lines follow the same pattern, we risk further over-serving the city core while outlying - and increasingly populated – regions remain underserved. A rethink is needed.
