I took the MRT train from Yio Chu Kang station at 9 am. To my surprise, the train was only half full.
I wonder if this is due to more train being put into service, or less passengers due to the economic recession?

I have a strong interest in improving the public transport system in Singapore. I will also include my observations about various types of transport in other countries. I hope to get ideas from other people to identify how to improve the system. I look foward to your contribution.
Chua Chu Kang is 3rd station from Jurong East. Down the road, there will be more people get into the train. If MRT reached Chua Chu Kang is fully loaded, further station passengers will not have chance to get into the train.
ReplyDeleteI guess it is due to people clearing leave during the year end, or because some people are retrenched.
