Improve public transport

Here is a comment posted in my blog:

I agree that more trains and buses are needed to facilitate public transportion. Not many people willing to take bus here for both the waiting time and traveling time are too long.

Currently the government hopes to solve the traffic problem through promotion of intelligent traffic information, establishment of a comprehensive information platform. It is a good idea. But, we do need a better and simple system, but maybe they need to do more which might cut off their profit.

How to encourage more people to take bus as daily transportation, and how to solve transportation problems of residents in HDB hubs of some towns?

I think the establishment of express bus service is an effective way. By withdrawing and merging some stops or across the Central Expressway, commuters spend less traveling time between office and home. Thus more people will choose bus services.

For example, there are more and more HDB flats in Sembawang now, however, there are not enough bus lines in this area.
