          We should have morning peak hours designated cabin for high traffic stations eg. City Hall and Raffles Place. Nobody will be reluctant to move in as everyone gets out in the same stop.


          But will it has any security implications? or there will be adequate security measures to justify this implementation? Imagine a bomb is placed in one of these cabins..... in a way it means the extermination of people with a common profile. :siam:

            No need to criticize your own ideas first...(someone else will 😆 🦆 )
            I see what you are trying to drive at, but don't quite get the idea -

            you mean lIke say, naming all the cabins 1 to X (sorry, how many cabins on MRT har? 6?), then, make announcement that passengers are recommended to take e.g. cabin 1 to 3 if they are heading to City Hall and Raffles Place? How will that improve efficiency and keep fares constant? It certainly sounds like at least there will be less shoving in and out of cabins - something like what limlim has suggested, everyone move in one direction only - yes?

            Like a river flowing in ONE SINGLE direction efficiently into the sea?

            Come to think of it, the MRT track is like a river that picks up debris ( 😆 we humans are the debris) along the way, depositing them here and there...

              West bound train…


              "If you’re not alighting before cityhall, please move to the front or rear cabin…"

              sounds fine to me…

              it’s like "stand on left of escalator" message… quite successful… isn’t it?

                just increase the speed will do. Revamp the tracks, use better metals.

                  Not making a cost-saving suggestion, it's a response to limlim's idea on cabin without door.

                        Wow. Not a single voice that supports his views. Mr. Lui, you are not the CEO of SMRT. You are a Minister voted in by the people. Please make this right. I wish you all the best.
