Went to my friend’s new BTO place at yislum. Have to take bus from yishun mrt/ khatib mrt very inconvenient.

why LTA don’t want do something similar like Bukit Panjang LRT/Sengkang punggol LRT. Honestly everywhere in sg is convenient already except yislum. Or is government still waiting for the announcement of the Seletar line?

My guess is no land space to built.
Or town too small.

You can reserved the space to build LRT for a bus lane and run a bus every 5 mins on it. Still it's much much cheaper than LRT

probably no land/space to do lah. Newer town was planned to intergrate the LRT route and station.
