Congestion on the Central Expressway

I moved into Yio Chu Kang in 1998 (nearly 10 years ago). I noticed, at that time, that it was getting congested.

I wrote to the authority to suggest the building of a second layer, above the Central Expressway. This would be similar to the second layer above Keppel Road.

Many cities adopted this approach.

The authority worked on another approach: to develop the Kallang Paya-Lebar Expressway. After 10 years, it is now almost ready.

If I were given the power to decide, my choice would be a second layer above the Central Expressway. Why? It could probably be implemented in half the time.

I hope that the new Kallang, Paya Lebar Expresway will finally ease the congestion on the Central Expressway.
