  There's CCL, DTL, Thomson Line, ERL... All are in the east/Central/north
  But these few years, there's none western new lines except Tuas Extension, it's not a new line, it's part of East West Line.
  Therefore if i am a planner i would have Western Region Line as follows
  
  If i am the planner i would say Western Region Line as follows

  WR01              Nanyang
  WR02              Westwood
  WR03              Jalan Bahar
  WR04              Jurong West
  WR05/EW26  Lakeside
  WR06              Yuan Ching
  WR07             Goh Keng Swee
  WR08              Teban Gardens
  WR09              West Coast
  WR10/CC25  Har Par Villa
  WR11              Bukit Merah
  WR12              Tiong Bahru
  WR13              River Valley
  WR14/NS22   Orchard

  Total 15 stations, build underground
  with 3 interchanges with EWL/NSL/CCL
  Nice combination, the whole map will see a U shape

  hahas.. The government says future lines will be underground. Yup i agree. But there's a piece a empty land beside JJC. Hence can be built
  
  Futuremore Jurong West is big, Lakeside doesn't cover the vast area of Jurong West
  
  Im drawing the map now ..hehe

  Too complicated already.Keppel is a working name station for NEL future station and WR18 to WR21 is MARINA BAY EXTENSION.I dont think LTA will buld an interchange for all its stations.Habourfront Interchange is NE01/CC29 and cant be like DBG.WR22 can also be NS29 Gardens By The Bay(NSL EXTENSION).

  Take consideration into the curves. Tiong Bahru then Outram Park then HarbourFront? The curve is too sharp.

  This line does not go through CBD.
  And YES NTU has VAST FOREST to build an MRT line over or under

• i_luv_erky

  8 Sep 10, 15:56

  By the way,
  NTU is surrounded by forest. Hence there's many land to build the station and who knows maybe a MRT depot there?
  
  Jurong West station, near JJC, theres land beside
  it does not go through CBD and thats the good thing, and it goes straight to orchard via tiong bahru

  Actually not really forest. There's vast empty land there near Jalan Bahar, the place is used to mix all the cement for all the buildings in singapore

  You know the route into NTU/NIE, it's very long. And we can build one there, What i mean is not the station inside the campus, maybe in the outskirts of NTU

  woh. that's cool to have Gek Poh MRT Station. But i think those live other side of singapore would not know this place. They will think Kay Poh.
